Process
Note, these instructions are written assuming the standard serving size, since you have modified the number of servings, these steps may need to be modified for best results
- Add the nuggets to a large bowl, sprinkle with lemon juice and let rest for 5 to 10 minutes before patting completely dry (with paper towels)
- Mix together a teaspoon of garlic powder, 2 teaspoons of onion powder, ¾ teaspoon of salt and a pinch of black pepper, then generously coat the salmon nuggets
- Mix together all the ingredients for your coating mix of choice and set aside
- Add oil to a frying pan or skillet on medium heat and bring up to temperature
- When oil is hot and you are ready to start frying your nuggets, coat nuggets in the coating mix, shaking off any excess flour, then add nuggets to the hot oil skin side up for frying
- Fry until brown on the side that is in the oil, then flip over to the skin side and continue to fry until the nuggets are completely golden brown, This should take about 3 minutes of total frying time
- Remove the crispy salmon nuggets from the oil and place on a plate lined with sheets of paper towels to drain any excess oil from the fish
- Repeat the frying process until all of the nuggets have been fried
- Serve nuggets warm with your choice of hot sauce or dipping sauce
Notes
After frying place the fish in a single layer on a plate lines with paper towel, then move the fish to a serving dish once drained. Replace the paper towels as necessary. These nuggets pair really well with hot sauce, like my favorite Saucy Lips Ghost Pepper Sauce
