If using freshly cut perch filets, rinse thoroughly and pat dry.
Check filets for bones (we generally don't bother checking).
Heat oil in a fryer or in large cast-iron skillet to 375℉
In a shallow bowl add egg and beat well.
In a separate medium bowl add breading/batter.
Dip filets into the egg, coating evenly.
Then dip the egg coated filet into the batter mixture, coating evenly.
Once the oil is up to temperature. Gently add the battered perch filets to the oil. Allow to cook for 2 minutes.
After 2 minutes flip the filet onto the uncooked side and cook another 2 minutes.
Remove the filets from the oil and place onto a papertowel lined plate.
Repeat this process until all filets have been cooked.
Place a fried perch filet onto a tortilla with some chipotle aioli and coleslaw. And enjoy!
