Step 1
Pat fish chunks dry with paper towels. Season generously with salt and pepper.
Step 2
Whisk flour, beer, 0.25 tsp salt, and 0.25 tsp pepper until smooth and thick like pancake batter.
Step 3
Heat oil in a heavy pot or deep skillet to 350°F (use a thermometer). Oil should shimmer and shimmer at the surface.
Step 4
Working in batches, dip fish chunks into batter to coat fully, then slide into hot oil. Fry 2–3 minutes until golden-brown and crispy.
Step 5
Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels. Keep warm while frying remaining batches.
Step 6
Serve hot with tartar sauce and lemon wedges on the side.
