4 steps

Ingredients

  • vegetable oil for frying
  • 1 1/2 cups cornmeal
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 tablespoon seasoned salt
  • 1/2 tablespoon lemon pepper
  • 1 tablespoon kosher salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground white pepper
  • 3 eggs
  • 6 salmon fillets, or to taste

Directions

  1. 1
    Heat oil to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) in a cast iron skillet over medium heat.
  2. 2
    Whisk cornmeal, flour, seasoned salt, lemon pepper, kosher salt, and white pepper together in a medium bowl.
  3. 3
    Crack eggs into a separate bowl; beat about 10 seconds. Dip salmon fillet into the eggs and coat completely. Dredge salmon in the cornmeal mixture to cover completely. Shake off excess.
  4. 4
    Lower salmon carefully into the hot oil in batches of 2 or 3. Fry, flipping halfway, until a golden brown crust forms, 8 to 10 minutes. Transfer to a plate lined with 3 to 4 sheets of paper towels to drain. Repeat with remaining salmon.
