Prep Time 20 minutes
Cook Time 10 minutes
Total Time 30 minutes

Ingredients
  

  • cup corn meal
  • 1 cup flour
  • ½ cup corn starch
  • 2 Tbsp baking powder
  • 1 Tbsp Creole Seasoning
  • 1 Tbsp Lemon Pepper Salt
  • 1 Tbsp paprika
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp dry mustard
  • 1 tsp dill weed
  • To Make the Fish
  • 1 cup flour
  • 1 cup milk
  • 2 eggs

Instructions
 

  • Mix the ingredients together and store in a zip lock bag or sealed container.
  • To Make the Fish
  • Put a cup of flour on a plate.
  • Mix 1 cup milk and 2 eggs and put this in a pie plate.
  • Place a couple of cups of fish breading on another plate.
  • Pat the fish dry, and then dip into the flour to coat lightly - this helps to hold the milk/egg mixture.
  • Then dip the fish in the milk/egg wash and let the excess drip off.
  • Then dip the fish into the breading and cover thoroughly on both sides.
  • Place the fish on a plate to set at least 15 minutes.
  • Heat the oil to 375 degrees F. Fry the fish until golden brown. Don’t crowd the fish in the pan and don’t overcook.
  • If you'd like to make a fish batter for coating the fish, mix 3/4 cup breading to one cup beer or 1 1/8 cup breading to one can of beer.
