This recipe brings a taste of KFC right to your kitchen with a homemade touch. Crispy and flavorful, this Nile fish fillet is perfect for a quick meal or as a special treat. Follow these easy steps to create a deliciously crispy fillet that rivals the restaurant’s famous flavor.
Ingredients:
- 1 package Nile fish fillets
- 5 tablespoons seasoned flour mix
- 2 tablespoons cornstarch
- Cooking oil for frying
Instructions:
-
Prepare the Fish: Begin by thoroughly cleaning the Nile fish fillets under cold water. Pat them dry with paper towels. Cut the fillets into your desired size for frying.
-
Coat the Fish: In a shallow dish, combine the seasoned flour mix with cornstarch. Dredge each fillet in this mixture, ensuring an even coating. This combination will give the fish a crispy texture reminiscent of KFC’s famous coating.
-
Heat the Oil: In a large skillet or frying pan, heat a generous amount of cooking oil over medium-high heat. You’ll need enough oil to cover the bottom of the pan and allow for shallow frying.
-
Fry the Fillets: Once the oil is hot, carefully place the coated fillets into the pan. Fry the fish for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until the coating is golden brown and the fish is cooked through. The fillets should have a crispy, golden exterior.
-
Drain and Serve: Remove the cooked fillets from the oil and place them on a plate lined with paper towels to drain any excess oil.
-
Enjoy: Serve your homemade KFC-style Nile fish fillets hot. They make a fantastic main dish, paired with your favorite sides or a simple salad.
Tips:
- Ensure the oil is hot enough before adding the fish to get a crispy coating.
- For added flavor, you can season the flour mixture with additional spices or herbs according to your taste.
