There’s something undeniably satisfying about the crispy, golden exterior and tender, flaky interior of fried fish at Long John Silver’s.

This recipe delivers the same crunch and flavor you love, perfect for homemade fish fries, family dinners, or even a casual snack. Here’s how to make it, step by step.
Ingredients
For the Fish:
- 1 lb (450g) white fish fillets (cod, haddock, pollock, or tilapia)
- Salt, to taste
- Black pepper, to taste
- Lemon juice, 1 tbsp
For the Batter:
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup cornstarch
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 1 tsp paprika
- 1/2 tsp garlic powder
- 1/2 tsp onion powder
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/4 tsp black pepper
- 3/4 cup cold sparkling water (for extra crispiness)
- 1 large egg
For Frying:
- Vegetable oil (or canola oil), enough for deep frying
Step-by-Step Method
Step 1: Prepare the Fish

- Sprinkle a pinch of salt, black pepper, and a little lemon juice on both sides. Set aside while preparing the batter.
