I’m not sure if these Surprise Coated Crisp Fish Filets use a secret fish coating but it’s certainly a surprise to me! I’m from the deep south and cornmeal is always what we use for coating.
But this fish browned up so nice and crispy I may never use cornmeal again!
The secret is potato flakes. You can either use plain potato as in the recipe or try some of the flavored types such as butter and herb.
I’m gonna’ try the Cajun seasoned next.
