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

Instructions

  1. Heat oil to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) in a cast iron skillet over medium heat.
  2. Whisk cornmeal, flour, seasoned salt, lemon pepper, kosher salt, and white pepper together in a medium bowl.
  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. 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.
