Once the two coating of breading are ready, let start frying this fish, add some pieces not all the pieces and fry until golden brown, it takes about 5 minutes total. Don’t place to much fish to the oil otherwise it will lower the temperature and it will not cook the fish properly.

For the Chipotle Mayonnaise, just mix in a bowl all the ingredients, I like little pieces of chipotle pepper, that is why for this mayonnaise in particular I don’t like to use the food processor.
