The other night I had two fish fillets and I just didn't want fried fish, so I came up with this creation. I threw in 3 or so shrimp and came up with this Seafood Puppy....you'll love them.
Seafood Puppies
2 Tilapia boneless fillets (or your favorite white fish)
3 or 4 shrimp, cooked, tails removed
2 Tbsp. cornmeal
1 Tbsp. ground pepper
1 Tbsp. sea salt
1 egg
2 cups Panko bread crumbs for breading in a bowl
3" of vegetable oil for frying
In a food processor, add the fish, cornmeal, salt, pepper and egg. Pulse a few times just to mix. Using a spoon, dip a heaping spoonful of the mixture and roll it into the Panko breading into a ball. Should form similar to a hushpuppy.
Meanwhile you should have been heating vegetable oil to about 350 degrees for frying. Drop the pups into the hot oil (to test if it is hot enough, drop a tiny tidbit in. If it sizzles and comes to the top immediately, it is ready). Turn the pups once to be sure all sides get brown and crispy.
Remove onto a paper towel to drain. Lightly salt the top and serve with Tartar Sauce or Cocktail Sauce.
Enjoy!
