FRIED KINGFISH FILLETS
Ingredients
4 – 6 kingfish fillets, rinsed and cleaned
Juice of 1 lime
2 cloves garlic, minced
2 tsp green seasoning
3-4 blades of chadon beni, chopped
1 tsp paprika
Salt
Black Pepper
Few dashes pepper sauce
1 cup all purpose flour
Oil for frying
Directions
- Season fish with lime juice, garlic, salt and pepper, green seasoning, paprika, pepper sauce, and chadon beni. Allow to marinate in the refrigerator for at least half hour. (Note: if marinating overnight, leave out lime and add just about half hour before frying as the acid can breakdown the fish) .
- Heat oil in a large frying pan over medium high heat.
- Place the flour in a dish and season with a little salt, black pepper and extra paprika.
- Evenly dredge the fish in seasoned flour shaking off the excess. Add to the hot oil in batches, cooking on each side about 3 – 4 minutes, depending on the thickness of the fillets, until fish flakes and is golden brown.
- Remove from pan and place on a paper towel to drain excess oil. Serve as desired.
