ingredients

2 pounds bluefish
1 1/2 cup flour
3 tablespoons baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons lemon-pepper seasoning
10 ounces beer
3 eggs, beaten

directions

Fillet and skin bluefish. Cut dark streak out of fish. Cut into serving size pieces.

Mix in bowl the flour, baking powder, salt, and lemon-pepper. Add beer and eggs to mixture, stir. Put fish in batter and let set for about 20 minutes.

Deep fry fish until golden brown. Leftover batter is great for frying oysters, without a fishy taste.

  1. Pete in CT REVIEW:

    Fantastic! Wasn't sure if bluefish would taste as good as other whitefish I've beer-battered before, but the proof was in the taste. Delicious, crispy, not fishy. Just perfect. I was sure to remove all "red line" from each fillet by cutting out the red center 1/4" or so. Then I cut each "half" fillet into smaller pieces, around 2" squares. Gave it a good half hour in the batter before frying and fried at 375 degrees in a rectangular electric skillet with about 1/2" of oil in bottom. I'll make this again and invite a crowd, because it made a lot of fried fish out of 4 10" fillets. Thanks for the recipe!
