Fish and Chips Ingredients 

  • 5 filets of Wild Alaskan Cod, cut into 2 to 3-inch pieces 
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour 
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder 
  • 1 teaspoon salt 
  • 1 tablespoon old bay seasoning
  • 2 teaspoons paprika
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper 
  • 1/2 cup cold beer or carbonated water 
  • 3 tablespoons vegetable oil for frying 

 

For the chips:     

  • 3 large russet potatoes cut 1/4 inch thick slices    
  • 2 teaspoons of dried parsley
  • 1 teaspoon of garlic powder
  • Vegetable oil for frying  
  • Salt to taste

 

Instructions:

 

  1. Preheat a deep fryer filled with vegetable oil to 375°F. This can also be done in a shallow skillet over medium-high heat.

 

  1. Combine the flour, baking powder, old bay seasoning, paprika, salt, and pepper in a bowl and whisk together until well combined. Then stir in the beer or carbonated water until it forms a thick batter with no dry spots remaining.

 

  1. Add the cod pieces to the batter, making sure each piece is fully coated before adding it to the hot oil for frying. Fry for about 4 minutes until golden brown on both sides and cooked through (the internal temperature should reach 145°F). Transfer onto a plate or platter lined with  paper towels when finished cooking to soak up any leftover oil. Sprinkle lightly with salt if desired while still warm from cooking.

 

  1. For the chips, add potato slices into preheated deep fryer filled with vegetable oil heated up to 350°F.Cook in batches as needed until golden brown and crispy on the outside for about 5 minutes per batch. Once cooked through, transfer the filets to a paper towel lined plate to soak up any leftover oil. Finally, sprinkle lightly with salt, garlic powder, and parsley while still warm from cooking if desired. Enjoy!
