Tricia's Beer Battered Fish

Ingredients

  • BEER BATTER:
  • One 12-ounce bottle beer
  • 1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon House Seasoning, recipe follows

Preparation

Step 1

For the beer batter: Pour the beer into a large bowl. Sift the flour over, whisking in gently until just combined. Pat the fish dry, sprinkle on both sides with the House Seasoning and coat the fish in the beer batter.

For the cod: Heat the oil in a large nonstick skillet until very, very hot. Remove the fish from the batter using tongs and allow the excess batter to drip off. Place into the hot oil and fry in batches until deep golden and cooked through, turning once, about 2 minutes per side. Transfer to a paper towel-lined baking sheet and keep warm in the oven. While the fish is still hot, sprinkle with the salt, if using, and drizzle with fresh lemon juice.
Mix together the salt, garlic powder and pepper until well combined
