It's too much! Too messy and too time consuming.

I cook fish and chips and seafood for a living and totally agree about the draining, always use a wire rack. As for the seasoning of the fish, try a little dried dill and parsley with salt and pepper after drying the fish and before flouring and battering, oh and I use self rasing flour instead of all purpose flour, I find it adds to the crispy factor. And yes, turn the fish when frying to get an even distribution of heat from the oil across the batter surface. Enjoy!!!!!

Great recipe.  I followed directions exactly.  The batter was very good.  I used Kona brewery Lager.

This recipe turned out awesome. We had some very hearty cuts of fish so the cook time was a little longer approximately 12 to 15 minutes flipped halfway through had them golden brown. Batter withstood malt vinegar and hot sauce with no problem. My family thanks you!! I used Corona this time but plan to use Guinness next time.

Made this again with Guinness and it turned out even better! The stout gave it that true pub fish taste. Amazing!!

Super yummy and very easy to make. Absolutely scrumptious!

and the CHIPS?
Change the recipe name. :(

Tried this and it was delicious! Batter was not too thick and super flavourful. I didn’t have Old Bay but I used paprika, ground mustard, salt, pepper and cayenne.

This was the worst recipe.. and I ama HUGE fan of Delish.. I use it all the time.. and being southern is being able to fry fish.. I have done many times before.  I'm not sure what happened.. but definitely will not use rhis again!

Used this recipe for fish tacos using cod. Really delicious. Wish I knew about the wire rack tip instead of paper towels but it was still very very good. Will make this again for tacos.

Yumm! Perfect batter, fluffy & crispy & golden, looked beautiful. This was my 1st  time frying fish with a beer batter & it was spot on. Very easy as well.

Fried catfish is an easy recipe that anyone can make. You just need to give yourself enough time to let the fish brine in the buttermilk and hot sauce mixture.
