Ensure your fish fillets are at room temperature for even frying. Place them in a large resealable plastic bag and add enough Gluten-Free Bisquick to coat them evenly. Seal the bag and shake well.

Remove the fillets from the bag and place them in a strainer. Gently shake to remove excess Bisquick coating.

Gradually add milk to the dry mixture, stirring continuously until a thin, smooth batter is achieved.
5
Heat your oil in a deep pan or fryer to approximately 350°F (175°C).

Dip each fillet into the prepared batter, allowing any excess to drip back into the batter bowl before carefully lowering the fillet into the hot oil.

Fry each fillet for about 3-5 minutes or until golden brown and crispy on the outside and cooked through on the inside.
8
Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels before serving hot.
