This is the best tasting batter for fresh fish.

Ingredients

2 lb. Fresh fish fillets

2 tsp. Greek seasoning, divided

1 1/2 tsp. Salt, divided

1 tsp. Pepper, divided

2 1/4 c. Flour

1/4 c. Yellow cornmeal

2 tsp. Baking powder

2 c. Cold beer

1 Lg. egg, lightly beaten

Vegetable oil

Preparation

Cut fish into 3-inch strips. Sprinkle evenly with 1 tsp. Greek seasoning, 1 tsp. salt, and 1/2 tsp. pepper.

Combine flour, cornmeal, baking powder, remaining 1 tsp. Greek seasoning, 1/2 tsp. salt, and 1/2 tsp. pepper; stir well. Add 2 cups cold beer and egg, stirring until thoroughly blended and smooth.

Pour oil to a depth of 2-3 inches into a Dutch oven (or large skillet/electric skillet); heat to 375.

Dip fish strips into batter, coating both sides well; shake off excess. Fry fish, in batches, 2 minutes on each side or until golden brown. Drain on paper towels.

Cook's Notes

These make great fish sandwiches. Just whip up some tarter sauce with mayo and pickle relish.
