No-Fail Crispy Battered Gluten-Free Fried Fish


  • Total Time: 35
  • Yield: 4 servings 1x
  • Diet: Gluten Free

Description

A crispy and delicious gluten-free fried fish recipe perfect for seafood lovers.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound white fish fillets (such as cod or tilapia)
  • 1 cup gluten-free all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 cup sparkling water or club soda
  • Oil for frying

Instructions

  1. Begin by heating oil in a deep frying pan or a deep fryer over medium-high heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C).
  2. In a bowl, combine the gluten-free flour, baking powder, salt, and black pepper. Whisk together until well mixed.
  3. Gradually add the sparkling water to the dry ingredients, whisking until a smooth batter forms. The batter should be light and airy; adjust the consistency with more sparkling water if needed.
  4. Pat the fish fillets dry with paper towels to remove excess moisture. This will help the batter adhere better.
  5. Dip each fillet into the batter, allowing any excess to drip off. Ensure that the fish is evenly coated.
  6. Carefully place the battered fish into the hot oil, frying in batches to avoid overcrowding. Fry for about 4-6 minutes on each side, or until the fish is golden brown and cooked through.
  7. Once cooked, remove the fish from the oil and place it on a plate lined with paper towels to absorb any excess oil.
  8. Repeat the process until all fillets are fried, and serve immediately with your favorite dipping sauce.

Notes

  • Make sure the fish fillets are patted dry to achieve the best coating.
  • Adjust the batter consistency with more sparkling water if necessary.
