Jamie's Fried Cod Fillets


Note: Electric skillets are best for frying because you can control the temperature better than on the stove top. By preheating the oil to 375º, once the fish is dropped into the oil the temperature will drop to the correct temp at 350º.

Ingredients:

  • 1-1/2 pounds cod fillets
  • 2 eggs, slightly beaten
  • 1/2 tsp. salt
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 tbsp. garlic powder
  • 1 tbsp. onion powder
  • 1 tbsp. Greek seasoning (optional)
  • 1/2 tbsp. salt
  • 1/2 tsp. pepper
  • Oil for frying
Directions:
Preheat oil in electric skillet to 375º. Make sure that oil is at least 2-1/2 inches deep. In a small bowl combine eggs and 1/2 tsp. salt and set aside. In a medium-sized bowl mix flour and seasonings. Cover each chunk of cod in egg and coat with flour mixture completely. Fry until golden brown at least 2-4 minutes on each side, depending on thickness of fillets.
When golden brown color has been reached, remove from oil and drain excess oil on a cookie rack with paper towels underneath to catch the run off.
