Great Crappie Recipe??

[masoct3]

I am sure this is around here somewhere. I did a search "crappie recipes" and it simply gave me the posts new-old with those words. No recipes listed.

ANYWAYS, I caught some nice slabs and I am looking for a great Beer Battered Crappie recipe. I would be making these in a pan.

If you can share, please do. Or PM me.

Thank you in advance!

pour a beer into a bowl and let go flat (not necessary but the best method).

add flour until the consistency is a little thicker than ranch dressing.

add some pepper and seasoning like Lowrys and garlic powder.

fry in hot oil

its best to use some beer that someone brought over that you either didn't drink out of necessity on a Sunday when you ran out of your favorite beer or have disliked so much you drank a pop. aka use any beer available that isn't your favorite

Gary Roachs breading, a flat beer... Mix till the consistency of a thin milk shake.

Coat moistened fillet in seasoned flour first.. Imortant step for the beer batter to adhere to fillet. Then dip in beer batter, then roll in Panko breading. Fry in hot oil till golden brown. Nice crispy coating! Great flavor.

Try with cocktail suce in lieu of tartar sauce... Fantastic!

Good luck!

I'm sorry but I'm from Missouri. (really) What does that statement mean? Baking in an oven?

I took it as a pan with about 1/4 to 1/2 inch fat melted of some kind,Fried fish.I'm from Minnesota and crappie are last on my eatin list.I like bass better.But my recipe lets the taste through if it's not to thick.

from my brother:

-Preheat oven to 415

-Spray glass baking dish with non-stick spray

-Lay down (don't stack) fillets

panfish fillets, or walleyes and saugers 15" & under are better

-Salt & pepper to your liking

-Mix together 2 tbsp melted butter, 2 tbsp lemon juice, 3 cloves of

finely chopped garlic. Spoon mixture evenly over fish

-Cover fish with grated cheddar cheese

-Cover with bread crumbs

-Bake in preheated oven for 12 min.

By far our favorite fish recipe!

There was some contest a while back at the ice show, and this recipe apparently won something....I haven't tried it, but you might want to give it a shot -- "World's crappie-est sandwich":

This is very good and you can use pretty much any kind of fish

Perch Florentine

INGREDIENTS

10 perch fillets

One half cup shredded mozzarella cheese

One cup of heavy whipping cream

One cup of chopped (fresh or frozen) cooked spinach

One cup of cooked shrimp

One quarter cup parmesan cheese

One cup seasoned flour

PREPARATION

Heat a small amount of olive oil in a non-stick pan. It’s hot enough when it just begins to smoke. Then dip the perch fillets into the seasoned flour. A light breading works the best. Brown them quickly, then drain the excess oil from the pan. Add the cream, and while it is reducing, layer the perch, spinach and shrimp in an oven-proof baking dish.

When the cream is reduced by half, pour it over the fish, top with the shredded mozzarella and parmesan, then place it under the broiler until it turns slightly brown and the cheese is bubbly.

Fry crappie fillet as you normally would. Toast two slices of sourdough bread. Have a thin slice of red onion (raw) ready. When fillet and toast are done, combine, add onion slice, add mayo.

Eat.

Few foods are better than a fried crappie fillet sandwich on toasted sourdough with mayo and onion.

I will have to advise to use homemade tartar rather than just mayo.
