Beer Battered Fish Seafood Recipes

THE BEST BEER BATTERED FISH

Steps:

• Season the fish with salt and pepper.
• Mix together the flour, baking powder, and salt in a bowl with a whisk.
• Dredge the fillets well in the flour mix, shaking off any excess. Refrigerate fillets until ready to fry.
• When the oil is hot, add the beer and honey to the flour mixture and stir well. A couple of lumps are preferable, so don't overwork it. Add a couple ice cubes to the batter.
• Dip a couple of fillets into the batter, coating them completely. Allow any excess batter to drain off.
• Gently place them into the 375°F oil and fry for 30 seconds.
• Flip the fillet, exposing the more-cooked bottom. Drizzle a little bit of batter on top. Flip the fillet back over and drizzle a little batter on top again. Don't overdo it, but just add a thin layer of additional batter.
• Fry the fish until deep golden brown, about 2 minutes total for fish that's an inch thick. Serve immediately.
