Number Of Ingredients 19

BREADED FISH STICKS
4 swai fillets (approximately 1 1/2 -2 pounds), thawed
2 eggs, beaten
1/2 c flour
1 c panko bread crumbs
1 Tbsp sweet heat blend, optional*
olive oil
butter
salt and pepper to taste
*if you do not use the sweet heat blend, you can add 1/2 tsp salt and 1/2 tsp pepper to panko and flour mixture.
SWEET HEAT BLEND SEASONING*
1/2 tsp granulated garlic
1/2 tsp granulated onion
1/4 tsp chili powder, optional
1 tsp paprika
1/4 tsp dried cilantro
1/2 tsp sugar
1/4 tsp tsp salt
1/4 tsp tsp pepper

Steps:

1. Combine flour and 1 tbsp Sweet Heat Blend into a gallon sized ziptop bag. This will cut down the mess! Set aside.
2. Using paper towels, pat your fish to remove excess liquid. The drier you can get your fish, the better that breading will stick.
3. Cut each fillet into four pieces (16 total), dip in egg and then place three pieces at a time in Panko mixture bag. Seal bag shut and shake. Press the breading into the fish. Remove and place in a baking sheet lined with paper towels. Repeat with remaining fillets.
4. Heat oil and butter over medium-high heat in a non-stick frying pan until bubbling and hot.
5. Place the breaded fish sticks into pan fry until golden brown. Do not overcrowd the pan. You may have to make two or three batches. Remove and place on paper towel-lined plate to absorb any extra oil. Sprinkle lightly with additional salt after you remove from pan (optional).
6. Serve with tartar sauce or sweet chili sauce depending on your preference. Enjoy!

Time 25m

Yield 4 1/2 pound servings, 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 lbs swai boneless fillets, thawed
1 teaspoon vegeta seasoning (all purpose seasoning)
1 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
3 tablespoons mayonnaise
2 eggs
1 cup flour
1/2 cup oil (for frying)

Steps:

Cut 2 pounds of Swai fillets into about 1 inch by 1 inch pieces. Sprinkle fish with 1 teaspoon Vegeta seasoning, 1 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper and mix.
In a small bowl whisk together 3 tablespoons mayo and 2 eggs. Pour over seasoned fish and mix well. Let it marinade for at least 15 minutes.
Cover the bottom of the pan with oil and preheat over medium heat. Coat pieces of fish in flour and fry for about 2 minutes on each side, or until golden brown.
Pour out oil after each batch, wipe the pan with napkins (just please don't burn yourself!), pour more oil in and fry some more. You will have to change the oil after every batch to keep the burned flour sticking to the fish.
