• While the fish marinates, gather and prep all of your spicy slaw ingredients according to the ingredients list above to have organized and ready for use.

Add the fish fillets (working in batches of two, if necessary) into the hot oil, and fry for 3-4 minutes per side, until cooked through and deeply golden-brown. Drain on a paper towel-lined wire rack. Repeat with any remaining fish fillets.
