Ingredients

• 4 pieces White fish fillets
• 1 cup Gluten-free all-purpose flour
• 1 tablespoon Cornstarch
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper, freshly ground
• 0.5 teaspoon Paprika
• 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 2 large Eggs
• 2 tablespoons Water
• 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
• 1 cup Gluten-free bread crumbs
• 2 cups Vegetable oil
• 1 for serving (optional) Lemon wedges

Directions

Step 1

Begin by rinsing the white fish fillets under cold water and patting them dry with paper towels. Set aside.

Step 2

In a shallow dish, mix together the gluten-free all-purpose flour, cornstarch, salt, black pepper, paprika, and garlic powder.

Step 3

In another shallow dish, whisk together the eggs, water, and lemon juice until well combined.

Step 4

Place the gluten-free bread crumbs in a third shallow dish.

Step 5

Dredge each fish fillet in the flour mixture, ensuring it is completely coated, and shake off any excess.

Step 6

Dip the floured fillet into the egg mixture, allowing any excess to drip off.

Step 7

Finally, coat the fish with gluten-free bread crumbs, pressing lightly to adhere.

Step 8

In a large skillet or frying pan, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C).

Step 9

Carefully place the coated fish fillets in the hot oil, frying them in batches if necessary to avoid overcrowding.

Step 10

Fry the fillets for about 3-4 minutes per side, or until they are golden brown and the fish flakes easily with a fork.

Step 11

Once cooked, transfer the fish to a plate lined with paper towels to absorb any excess oil.

Step 12

Serve immediately with lemon wedges, if desired, for a fresh, tangy finish.
