Ingredients

  • 1 ½ cups beer

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour

  • 1 large egg

  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder

  • ½ teaspoon salt

  • ½ teaspoon ground black pepper

  • 1 pound cod fillets

  • 2 cups crushed cornflake crumbs

  • 1 teaspoon Cajun seasoning

  • 1 quart oil for frying

Directions

  1. Beat together beer, flour, egg, garlic powder, salt, and pepper in a medium bowl until smooth. Add cod fillets; stir gently until well coated.

  2. Mix together cornflake crumbs and Cajun seasoning in a separate medium bowl until well combined. Dip cod in cornflake mixture to thoroughly coat all sides.

  3. Heat oil in a large, heavy skillet or deep fryer to 365 degrees F (185 degrees C). Fry cod in hot oil until golden brown and flesh is easily flaked with a fork. Drain on a paper towel-lined plate.

Editor's Note:

We have determined the nutritional value of oil for frying based on a retention value of 10% after cooking. The exact amount may vary depending on cook time and temperature, ingredient density, and the specific type of oil used.
