Beer Batter Halibut
Crisp and delicious
Ingredients
- Fresh halibut, diced into approximately 3 - 4 inch pieces
- 1 package McCormick's Fish Beer Batter
- Garlic salt to taste
- Peanut oil
Cocktail Sauce
- 1/2 cup ketchup
- 1 tsp fresh squeezed lemon juice
- 1 tsp Worcestershire sauce
- 1 tsp grated horseradish (add more for zing)
Instructions
- Mix a packet of dry batter with enough water until slightly thinner than pancake batter.
- Dust Fish liberally with garlic salt before placing in the batter. Add fish to batter and coat.
- Place small batches in a pan of oil heated to 350 degrees and cook until light golden brown. Lean to the side of undercooking halibut as it will continue to cook after removing from oil. Over-cooking will lead to dryness. Keep an eye on the temp of oil while adding fish – if drops below 350 degrees, fish could end up soggy.
- Remove with a slotted spoon to paper towels. Serve immediately with Cocktail sauce.
Cocktail Sauce
- Mix all ingredients together and serve in a bowl.
