How to prepare.
Nashville Hot Fish And Chips
Ingredients:
For the Fish:
➤4 white fish fillets (such as cod or haddock)
➤1 cup all-purpose flour
➤1 cup cornmeal
➤1 teaspoon paprika
➤1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper (adjust for desired spiciness)
➤Salt and black pepper to taste
➤1 cup buttermilk
➤Vegetable oil for frying
For the Nashville Hot Sauce:
➤1/2 cup hot sauce (e.g., Frank's RedHot)
➤1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
➤2 tablespoons brown sugar
➤1 tablespoon cayenne pepper
➤1 teaspoon smoked paprika
➤1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
➤1/2 teaspoon onion powder
➤1/2 teaspoon salt
For the Chips (Fries):
➤4 large russet potatoes, peeled and cut into fries
➤Vegetable oil for frying
➤Salt to taste
Instructions:
1. Prepare the Nashville Hot Sauce:
➔In a bowl, whisk together the hot sauce, melted butter, brown sugar, cayenne pepper, smoked paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, and salt. Set aside.
2. Prepare the Fish:
➔In a shallow dish, mix together the flour, cornmeal, paprika, cayenne pepper, salt, and black pepper.
➔Dip each fish fillet into the buttermilk, allowing any excess to drip off, and then coat it in the flour- cornmeal mixture. Press the mixture onto the fish to ensure it adheres well.
➔Place the coated fish on a wire rack to rest while you heat the oil.
3. Prepare the Chips (Fries):
➔Heat vegetable oil in a large pot or deep fryer to 350°F (175°C).
➔Fry the potato fries in batches until golden brown and crispy, about 4-6 minutes per batch. Remove them with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels. Sprinkle with salt while they're still hot.
4. Fry the Fish:
➔In the same hot oil, carefully add the coated fish fillets. Fry for about 4-5 minutes per side, or until they are golden brown and cooked through. The internal temperature of the fish should reach 145°F (63°C). Drain the fried fish on paper towels to remove excess oil.
5. Coat with Nashville Hot Sauce:
➔While the fish is still hot, brush or drizzle the Nashville hot sauce over the fillets, ensuring they are evenly coated. You can adjust the amount of sauce to your desired level of spiciness.
6. Serve:
➔Serve the Nashville Hot Fish alongside the crispy fries. You can also serve it with coleslaw or pickles for a traditional Nashville hot chicken experience.
Enjoy your spicy Nashville Hot Fish and Chips! It's a delicious and fiery twist on a classic dish.
