Something went wrong. Our team is working on it. Original recipe (1X) yields 4 servings servings 4 cups vegetable oil 5 ounces seasoned crispy fish fry seafood breading mix (Louisiana® brand) 1 pound Louisiana alligator prime filet, cut into 2-inch cubes Directions Heat oil in a deep-fryer or large saucepan to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Pour fish fry mix into a 1-gallon resealable plastic bag. Add alligator nuggets, reseal the bag, and shake to coat. Let stand for 5 minutes. Shake the bag again. Place half of seasoned alligator nuggets in the deep fryer. Cook until golden brown and nuggets float to the top of the oil, about 3 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted in the center should read at least 160 degrees F (70 degrees C). Using tongs, transfer nuggets to a paper-towel lined plate. Repeat Step 3 with remaining nuggets. Serve immediately. Editor's Note: Nutrition data for this recipe includes the full amount of breading ingredients. The actual amount of breading consumed will vary.
