Luby’s Fried Fish and Tartar Sauce

First things first, let’s appreciate how crispy and golden these fish bites get! Just imagine biting into that perfectly fried piece of fish – it’s amazing. And we can’t forget about the tartar sauce; it’s that perfect complement to the fish. Now here’s what you need:

Ingredients

4 pieces of firm white fish (like cod or tilapia)
1 cup buttermilk
1 cup cornmeal
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon paprika
Salt and black pepper to taste
Oil for frying
For the tartar sauce:
1 cup mayonnaise
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
2 tablespoons chopped dill pickles
1 tablespoon lemon juice
Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

Start by marinating your fish in the buttermilk for at least 30 minutes. This helps tenderize it and adds flavor.
In another bowl, mix up the cornmeal, flour, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper. This will be your breading mixture.
Once your fish has marinated, take each piece and dredge it in the cornmeal mixture, making sure it’s well-coated. Shake off any excess.
Heat oil in a deep fryer or a large skillet over medium-high heat. You want enough oil to submerge the fish a bit.
Carefully place the coated fish in the hot oil and fry for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and crispy.
Once done, remove the fish and place it on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.
For the tartar sauce, simply mix all the sauce ingredients together in a bowl until well combined. Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary.
Serve your fried fish hot with a generous side of tartar sauce. It’s finger-licking good!
