Instructions

  1. Whisk spices for buttermilk mixture together with buttermilk.
  2. Coat both sides of fillets with the buttermilk mixture. Let rest for at least 10 minutes. Can be soaked longer, just refrigerate and remove from refrigerator to counter for 10 minutes.
  3. Mix spices into bread crumbs.
  4. Drain one side of fillets on paper towel.
  5. Coat the fillet with the panko and press down, if needed, to make panko adhere to fish.
  6. Add enough oil to get a depth of approximately 1 inch deep, in heavy bottom pan. Bring oil to 350-365°F. Add fillets a few pieces at a time. Don't overcrowd the pan. Fry until golden brown (about 3-5 minutes, depending on thickness) on one side, flip and brown second side. 
  7. Drain on wire rack. Serve with sweet potato chips.

Notes

  • Let filets drain for a few minutes on paper towels before coating with breading.
  • Press down fish into panko, so that breading adheres to fish.
  • Place them in the hot oil immediately after breading. 
  • Watch the filets carefully, so that they don't over-brown.
  • If you have large filets, they can be finished in the oven, at 350°F. Internal temperature should register 145°F
