fresh fish bites

Homemade beer battered fish nuggets are now a staple in our house. They are so easy, and so delicious! Make them with any firm whitefish.

Beer Battered Fish Bites

Pour the oil into a medium-sized saucepan and put it on the stove on medium-high.

While the oil is heating, mix together the dusting ingredients in a separate bowl.

Mix all dry ingredients thoroughly and then add the beer.

Mix until there are no lumps and the batter is the consistency of pancake batter.

Check the temperature of your oil with a thermometer. When it is 350°, you are ready to fry.

Take about a third of your fish and dredge it into the dusting flour. Shake off the excess flour.

Next, put the fish chunks into the beer batter, lift out letting excess drip off, and then lower into the oil.

Let the fish fry for two to three minutes and remove it from the oil when it is golden brown.

Place the fish on a plate or bowl that is lined with paper towels in order to catch any excess oil.

Repeat the dredging and frying process for the rest of your fish and then you are ready to eat.
