Baked fish is wonderful but there's nothing like fried fish, especially when it comes to tilapia and whiting. Tender on the inside and crunchy on the outside, its perfect for any season especially the summer. What's better than fried whiting? Fried whiting with a bit of a spice and heat! A little cayenne pepper goes a long way for fried fish and chicken recipes and is probably the reason why you keep going back for more bites. I don't make fried fish often but when I do its a treat! Try this recipe for your next summer gathering or family dinner.
