  • 1 1/2 pounds cod fillets, skinned with bones removed, and fish cut diagonally into 1-inch-wide strips (5 to 6-inches long)

Fry fish, turning over frequently, until deep golden and cooked through, 4 to 5 minutes. Transfer to a paper towel-lined baking sheet and keep warm in oven. Fry remaining fish in batches, returning oil to 375 degrees F between batches.

    5 stars...yes it's deserving of 5 stars.
    If you want that New England feel of fish and chips this is what you want to make. The batter is perfect, not too thick not thin and perfectly crispy.
    I did tweek it a bit with the sub of Old Bay instead of salt and I didn't make up the whole giant batch of House Seasoning. I chose to just add a few shakes of pepper and garlic powder.
    Fried up the fish, made some homemade tater sauce, fries and have the bottle of malt vinegar handy. The perfect New England Fish and Chips

    I wish this recipe didn't have the house seasoning recipe at the bottom to throw people off. I definitely don't need a cup and a half of salt and pepper sitting around in my cupboards. I had a headache and wasn't thinking correctly when I went to cook this recipe and used the entire cup of salt, ruining my fish. A stupid mistake, but I do wish this recipe was more clear and simply called for a pinch each of salt, pepper and garlic powder. I will have to try again next week but I'm simply disappointed for now...
