How to Make Beer Battered Fish And Chips

  1. Preheat oven to 450°F (232°C).
  2. Wash and cut potatoes into 1/2-inch thick fries. Toss fries with 2 tablespoons of oil and 1/2 teaspoon salt.
  3. Spread fries in a single layer on a large baking sheet. Bake for 20-25 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden brown and crispy.
  4. While fries are baking, combine fish and 1/4 cup beer in a bowl. Cover and chill for at least 30 minutes (no need for a full hour).
  5. In a separate bowl, whisk together remaining 3/4 cup beer, flour, and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper until smooth.
  6. Drain chilled fish, discarding excess liquid. Dip fish into batter, ensuring it's fully coated.
  7. Heat remaining 4 tablespoons of oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat.
  8. Carefully place fish in the hot skillet. Cook for 3-4 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through.
  9. Season cooked fish with remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt.
  10. Serve immediately with crispy fries. Enjoy!
