(67.167.171.245) | So...knowing there are a ton of recipes out there, I wanted to put together a thread just for fish recipes. Some may do crappie one way, cat and bass another. I'm still undecided what way I like. My favorite has been Flathead covered with my favorite spices and thrown on the grill. Let's hear them! -----

        Location: Chattanooga (66.18.59.131) | I just know one recipe... frighteningly simply -- crunch up Saltine crackers super fine by putting them in a sturdy baggie and smashing them.
Dip boneless fish filets in milk, drop in baggie and shake to coat them with crunched up Saltine crackers. No other seasoning necessary...
You can deep fry them or skillet fry them... but "If it ain't fried, it ain't fish!"

   Location: Soddy Daisy, Tn (174.252.184.152) | I quess I am probably a little old fashioned on this, but yellow self rising corn meal with a little salt and pepper used as a batter and deep fried is the way to go. Eat it while it is hot with hush puppies and cole slaw is as good as it gets. -----

(67.167.171.245) | My mother In law cooks it this way and its not bad. I use it from time to time.
BIG BASS BATTER
(cooks.com)
3 lbs. of bass fillets cut into 2-inch wide strips
2 c. Aunt Jemima pancake mix
1 (12 oz.) can 7-UP
2 c. peanut oil
Pour oil into a heavy large frying pan and heat until oil bubbles. Meanwhile, in a large bowl take the pancake mix and slowly add enough 7-UP to make the batter into a soup-like consistency. Mixture should be thin.
Drop pieces of fish into the batter to coat Place battered fish into hot oil and fry until golden brown. Drain on paper towels.
Typically I fry all my fish the same way Chris does (FishnMagician) But I add a touch of garlic salt to the mix. I think Spurhunter got me doing that.
My hushpuppies are a simple batter I buy but add small bits of chopped onions. -----

Just cut the fish into about 1" peices and batter them any way you like then fry. We use flour tortillas fill with fish top with lettuce,tomatoes,cheese and tarter sauce. My wife makes homade tarter sauce its the best idk the recipe for that.

      Location: Big Cove, AL (199.209.241.13) | My two favorite: Pan Seared: Smoking hot skillet w/ two tablespoons of coconut oil. Season fillets with blackening seasoning and sear them until just done. Do NOT OVERCOOK Pan Fried: 3/4 inch of coconut oil in pan til bubbles. Pat dry fillets and dip in buttermilk seasoned with sea salt, black pepper, and red pepper. Dredge in Zatirans Southern Style and toss straight in pan. Couple minutes on each side. DO NOT OVERCOOK. Those of y'all who haven't tried cooking with coconut oil are missing out. The stuff simply will not burn. -----

     Location: Cleveland, TN (24.151.195.136) | I just tried a new mix called New Orleans Seasoned Fish Fry Mix. It's cornmeal based with a great flavor and a little bite (hotness) to it. Mary and I thought it was terrific last night on white bass. I used milk and an egg mixed before coating the fillets. Absolutely wonderful. Bought it in the grocery section of Wal-mart superstore. -----

(198.51.179.254) | My favorite is Beer Battered Fish. Works well with bream, crappie and spots Mix 1 cup of yellow corn meal, 1/2 cup of all purpose flour, a little garlic powder, paprika salt and black pepper. Stir in 1 egg along with a 12 oz can of Budwieser until a thin batter is formed. Dip fillets in batter and deep fry until golden brown. |

      Location: Chattanooga, TN (74.221.189.82) | Premix these spices ... Equal parts of Thyme, Oregano. Cumin. Roasted Paprika and if you want it hotter add ground Cayenne Pepper. (Equal parts of each). This doesn't take much but Lightly coat your boneless fillets and saturate with EVO. Preheat on your grill a cast-iron cooking pan and coated with EVO. Place fillets on the hot cast-iron and cook until the edges start to turn ... Flip only one time. The fish will not need but a couple minutes on the flipped side. Just enough to set the surface.
The Cumin will salt your fish plenty enough ... however if you prefer more salt add a pinch to suit your taste.
In addition There is a sauce I like on bitter flavored fish like Trout and Salmon.. Very simple Four parts of Real mayonnaise(Helmans) one part yellow mustard and one part Real-lemon juice from the bottle. Blend that and adjust parts to suit your taste. Lightly coat fish just prior to serving or add a spoon full along side your fish on the plate ----- "We are in desperate need of New Drivers for the Original Software Operating System we call the Constitution." |
