PAN FRIED Oven Baked - HERRING RECIPE - Easy Quick Simple & Tasty - FISH FRY. How do you cook your herring? I could create a separate cooking channel on herring cookery. One herring recipe to share and ideal for the busy angler is oven baked pan fried herring. A fish fry that is quick, easy, and tasty. Nothing to clean up and you could prepare after a hard day on the water. Clean your herring at the dock, rinse, prepare and cook at home. And again, no clean up! Now lets talk about how to make oven baked pan fried herring.
Ingredients:
8-12 Herring
1 Egg
1 Cup Flour
1 Cup Canola or your favorite cooking oil
Cajun Spices to taste or your favorite spice mix in proportion to flour
Dash Salt - Optional
Utensils:
Ziploc Bag
2 Aluminum Baking Pans. You can use one big one just make sure there is space between the herring.
Bowl for Egg - You could beat the egg in the Ziploc!
Bowl for Flour & Spice
Large Metal Spool
Spatula
Preparation:
1. Preheat your oven to 400 degrees.
2. Thoroughly clean and dry herring.
3. Prepare your flour and spice mixture to taste. I like several tablespoons of any Cajun spice such as Old Bay to 1 cup of flour. Mix until color is even.
4. Crack and beat one egg.
5. Pour beaten egg in Ziploc, add herring and seal top. Mix until you are sure all herring are coated inside and out.
6. Open Ziploc and pour your flour and spice mixture in. Seal. Shake and sift until even herring is evenly coated.
7. Pour oil on the bottom of your pans evenly with enough that the herring is just sitting on a layer of oil
8. Drizzle a small amount of oil on top of each herring
9. Place your pan in over for about 30 minutes
10. After 30 minutes safely take pan out and ladle oil over your herring
11. After 15 more minutes repeat the above
12. I like to cook another 15 minutes and check on the herring and do another ladling the get really crispy at this point. You can repeat as often as needed until herring are a golden crispy firm bubbly texture.
13. In all I oven bake pan fry the herring for about 60-80 minutes and I give more time then take. YOU CANT LADLE TOO MUCH between this time!!!
14. You will know your herring are done because they develop a firm, crispy, golden texture. If you are not sure let the herring cook longer but keep an eye on them you DO NOT want them a dark brown but more of a golden brown.
15. Remove the pans of herring from oven and let cure to room temperature.
16. READY TO EAT!
I go by feel and mood that's just how I cook, just as I fish. The big points of this recipe are your mixture of spices that you enjoy and getting the herring cooked to a perfect golden brown confection. I like them best served room temperature and even cold and they make great herring hero's too. You can eat the bones and all when cooked proper. Oven baked pan fried herring is simple, quick and delicious, I hope you enjoy and save some time!
