• Heat a large skillet over high heat.
• Add in about 3 tablespoons butter to the hot skillet.
• Saute the fillets in 2 batches, cooking on each side (on high heat about 2 minutes per side) or until just cooked through; transfer the fish to a plate to keep warm.
• Add in the remaining 4 tablespoons butter and cook until golden in colour; add in lemon juice, bring to a boil and add in the parsley.
• Season the sauce with salt and pepper.

FISH FRY

Steps:

• Pour 2-inches of vegetable oil into a large skillet. Place skillet over large burner and heat oil over medium high heat. To check if the oil is hot enough, drop in 1-inch cube of white bread. The bread should brown in a 40 count.
• Cut cod into 4 servings, 6 to 8-ounce portions and season with salt and pepper. Place a couple of scoops of flour in a pie tin. Combine egg and water in second tin. Season plain bread crumbs and mustard and cayenne in the third tin. Coat fish in flour, then egg, and then bread crumbs. Gently set coated fish into hot oil and fry 5 minutes on each side until medium golden brown in color.
• When the fish is evenly golden all over, remove and drain on brown paper sacks.
• Suggested: 3 disposable pie tins .

CRISPY FRIED FISH

Steps:

• In shallow dish, mix flour and seasoned salt. In medium bowl, beat eggs and beer with whisk. Place bread crumbs in large resealable food-storage plastic bag.
• In electric skillet or deep fryer, heat about 2 inches oil to 350°F. Coat both sides of fish fillets with flour mixture, then dip in beer mixture, letting excess drip back into bowl. Place 1 or 2 pieces of fish at a time in plastic bag with bread crumbs; seal bag and shake to coat completely.
• Fry fish in batches in hot oil about 4 minutes, turning once, until golden brown. Drain on paper towels. Serve hot.

CRISPY PAN FRIED FISH

Steps:

• Use scrunched up paper towels to pat the fish dry on both sides. This is especially important if you are using thawed frozen fish.
• Season the fish well on both sides with salt and pepper (key!).
• Mix the flour and paprika on a plate.
• Coat fish on both sides with flour, pressing down firmly so it adheres, but shake well to remove excess. (Note 2)
• Heat a heavy based skillet (normal or non stick) over medium high heat until you see wisps of smoke. Add oil and swirl to coat the pan - it will heat within seconds.
• Add fish - it should sizzle straight away. Shake the pan lightly to move the fish. Cook for 2 minutes until golden and crisp, pressing down gently, then flip. Cook the other side for 2 minutes until crisp then remove.
• If it's browning too quickly, just remove pan from the stove briefly. If it's stuck, don't move - it will release naturally once golden.
• Serve fish immediately with lemon wedges and garnished with dill or parsley, if using. It starts to lose crispiness after 5 minutes.

EASY LIGHTLY FRIED FISH - THYME AND SPICES - MEDITERRANEAN

Steps:

• thaw the fish if frozen - rinse it under water and pat dry if you wish.
• preheat about an inch of oil in a pan.
• cut the fillets into smaller pieces if you want.
• crack the egg into a shallow bowl and beat - add a pinch of salt and pepper.
• prepare the spiced fish fry coating - mix roughly 50:50 flour:spices. I suggest adding a fair amount of salt and pepper, and also chili powder if you like it hot. ANY COMBO OF SPICES WORK, be liberal. MIX UNTIL HOMOGENOUS.
• dip the fish in egg - let the extra egg drip off (tap against the side of bowl).
• coat both sides of the egged up fish in the frying coating.
• carefully (hot oil is dangerous!) fry both sides of the fish in the oil until golden brown on both sides, and the inside of the fish is flaky and white.
• dry on paper towels lined with a bed of thyme.
• garnish with lemon wedges and thyme sprigs (optional).

• 2. Dip fish into the egg mixture, and then coat with the crushed corn flakes on both sides.
• 3. In a large skillet(preferably cast iron) over high heat, add 1 inch cooking oil. When oil is hot, fry the pieces of coated fish until it is lightly browned on both sides. Serve while still hot. If desired serve with lemon wedges or optional seafood sauce, or tarter sauce.

BAJA FRIED FISH TACOS RECIPE: DELICIOUS STREET TACOS

Steps:

• Heat a few inches of your cooking oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat or in a deep fryer.
• Season all sides of your fresh cod fillets with salt, then slice into 8 even pieces.
• Shred your cabbage with a sharp chef's knife or a mandolin slicer.
• Place all of your batter ingredients in a shallow mixing bowl - all-purpose flour, sea salt, cayenne, egg, and Mexican beer. Whisk together the mixture until you create a smooth batter. Set aside.
• In a medium-sized mixing bowl, whisk together the Baja fish taco sauce recipe - mayonnaise, crema, lime, cilantro, and honey.
• Once well mixed, toss in the sliced cabbage mix until well-coated. Set aside.
• Grab some heat-safe tongs or use your fingers to dip each piece of cod into the batter bowl. Hold the cod above the bowl for a few seconds to allow the excess batter to drip off before carefully placing it into the preheated oil.
• Fry the cod in the oil until both sides brown; you'll likely need to gently flip the fish over halfway as it often floats at the top.
• Remove the fish with a stainless steel mesh scoop, then transfer to a large dinner plate lined with a few paper towels. Lightly salt.
• Continue the deep-frying process until you've cooked all your cod.
• Use a tortilla warmer to heat your tortillas, then top them with a piece of cooked fish.
• Top with your cabbage slaw in Baja sauce
• Add your final fish taco toppings - a squeeze of fresh lime, cilantro, salsa verde, or pico de gallo.
• Immediately serve and enjoy your fried fish tacos with slaw!

EASY FRIED BASA FISH FILLET RECIPE

Steps:

• Add the butter, chicken stock, heavy cream, lemon juice, lemon zest, mustard, salt, and pepper to a saucepan, and allow everything to simmer at a low heat for a few minutes. Make sure to keep it low - if the sauce begins to boil, it will split. Take the pan off the heat, and allow it to sit and cool slightly.
• Season the basa fish fillets with salt and pepper.
• Heat a frying pan to a medium-high heat, then add the olive oil once it becomes hot.
• Place the basa fillets into the hot pan, and fry for roughly 3 minutes on one side.
• After 3 minutes and when the fish are coloring slightly underneath, flip both the fish fillets over, and add the butter to the pan. Tilt the pan, and use the melted butter and juices to baste the fish. Fry for another 2 to 3 minutes until the fish is no longer translucent.
• Take the fish out of the pan, and allow it to rest for a few minutes before serving with the lemon cream sauce.
