Gluten Free “Fried” Fish

There is nothing more satisfying than a delicious plate of fried fish and french fries even though I rarely ever partake.  Fried food can be a trigger for people with IBS which is why it is rarely in my food rotation but that doesn’t mean I don’t have cravings.  My version of this dish is just as good but without the traditional deep frying method while still sticking to safe FODMAP foods.  Instead, I coat the fish in potato flakes (which are naturally gluten-free) and lightly pan fry instead of deep frying.

It makes me laugh to think that it wasn’t until a few years ago that I started eating seafood.  I’ve gotten more adventurous but when it comes to what fish I cook at home, I tend to stick to salmon, cod and shrimp.

Check out some of my favorite fish recipes: cornmeal crusted fish tacos, baked pecan salmon & shrimp & vegetable stir fry.

On our honeymoon in Santorini, I learned a major lesson when I ordered dinner expecting to get a fillet but instead was served an entire fish.  I wasn’t ready for the full head and tail experience.  Has anyone else had this experience while traveling abroad and was completely startled?!
