Beer-Battered Seafood

By cwyorkiex3

Fishing fans in the family? This is a scrumptious (and easy) way to fix their catch!
Serve these crispy fish fillets in a plastic basket lined with cooking parchment paper. Add coleslaw, potato chips, tartar sauce and a stack of napkins for a true fish-fry experience!
These fillets go especially well sandwiched in burger buns. Adding tartar sauce, crisp lettuce leaves and a sliced tomato gives you the Ultimate Fish Sandwich.

Preparation

Step 1

Heat oil (1 1/2 inches) in heavy saucepan or deep fryer to 350ºF. Lightly coat fish with 3 to 4 tablespoons Bisquick mix.

Mix remaining ingredients with hand beater until smooth. (If batter is too thick, stir in additional beer, 1 tablespoon at a time, until desired consistency.) Dip fish into batter, letting excess drip into bowl.

Fry fish about 2 minutes on each side or until golden brown; drain. Serve hot and, if desired, with tartar sauce.
