Step 1
Cut fish fillets into 2-inch pieces. Pat dry with paper towels.
Step 2
Stir mayonnaise, lemon zest, and lemon juice in a small bowl. Season with salt and pepper.
Step 3
Pour flour into a shallow dish. Season generously with salt and pepper.
Step 4
Heat oil in a heavy pot to 350°F (use a thermometer). Oil should shimmer and move quickly.
Step 5
Coat fish pieces in flour, shaking off excess. Fry in batches without crowding, 3–4 minutes.
Step 6
Fish should be golden-brown and float briefly. Drain on a paper-towel-lined plate.
Step 7
Serve hot with lemon mayo on the side and a pinch of sea salt.
