How to Make Absolutely Amazing Fish Batter
- Pour 2 inches of oil into a deep fryer and preheat to 350°F (175°C).
- Wash fish fillets thoroughly and pat completely dry with paper towels.
- In a large bowl, whisk together 2 cups all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon cayenne pepper, 1 tablespoon Old Bay seasoning, and 1 tablespoon lemon zest.
- Add 1 large egg, 1 tablespoon hot sauce, and 1/2 cup beer. Whisk vigorously until smooth and lump-free. The batter should resemble pancake batter in consistency.
- Dip fish fillets into the batter, ensuring they are fully coated.
- Carefully place the battered fillets into the hot oil, ensuring not to overcrowd the fryer. Fry for 4-5 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through.
- Remove the fish from the fryer and place on a wire rack to drain excess oil. Serve immediately with your favorite sides and our delicious lemony tartar sauce!
