How to Make Honey Fried Halibut

  1. In a shallow bowl, whisk together 1 large egg and 2 tablespoons of honey.
  2. In a separate shallow bowl, combine 1 cup cracker crumbs, 1/2 cup all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper.
  3. Dip each halibut fillet (about 6 ounces each) in the egg mixture, ensuring it's fully coated, then dredge in the cracker crumb mixture, pressing gently to adhere.
  4. Heat 1/4 inch of vegetable oil (about 1/4 cup) in a large skillet over medium-high heat. The oil is ready when a pinch of crumbs sizzles immediately.
  5. Carefully place the halibut fillets in the hot oil, ensuring not to overcrowd the pan. Fry for 3-4 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Internal temperature should reach 145°F (63°C).
  6. Remove the halibut from the skillet and place on a wire rack or paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil. Serve immediately and enjoy!
