Fish & Chips

• total time: 4 minutes

Ingredients

1–2 lbs Cod (or any firm white fish)

Plain flour (for dredging)

Frozen French fries & sweet potato fries

Fish Seasoning:

1 tsp Kosher salt

1 tsp Black pepper

1 Tbsp Garlic powder

Batter:

12 oz Ice-cold beer

1 cup All-purpose flour

1 Tbsp Chicken powder (or bouillon)

1/2 tsp Paprika

1 Tbsp Garlic powder

1 tsp Black pepper

1/2 tsp Kosher salt

Directions

Pat the fish fillets dry with a paper towel. Season both sides with kosher salt, black pepper, and garlic powder. Set aside.

In a mixing bowl, combine all batter ingredients. Whisk until smooth and well combined. Place the batter in the fridge—cold batter leads to crispier results.

Cook frozen fries and sweet potato fries according to package directions. Keep warm.

Lightly coat the seasoned fish in plain flour—this helps the batter stick.

Dip each piece into the cold batter, let excess drip off briefly, and immediately fry in 350°F oil for 4–5 minutes, or until golden and crispy. Work in batches to avoid overcrowding the pan.

Drain on a wire rack or paper towel-lined plate.

Serve hot with fries, lemon wedges, and your favorite dipping sauce (tartar sauce, vinegar, or garlic mayo work great).

Tip: For extra crunch, double-fry your fries—once at 325°F until tender, then again at 375°F to crisp up.

Enjoy your crispy, golden Fish & Chips!
