Step-by-Step Instructions
- Begin by cutting the boneless white fish into bite-sized pieces. In a mixing bowl, combine vinegar, peri peri seasoning, ginger garlic paste, salt, and crushed black pepper, creating a marinade. Gently toss the fish pieces in this mixture, ensuring they are evenly coated. Let them sit for about 10 minutes to soak up the flavors.
- In a clean bowl, mix panko breadcrumbs, all-purpose flour, and dried parsley thoroughly. In another bowl, whisk together the egg and milk until well combined.
- Take each marinated fish piece and dredge it lightly in the all-purpose flour first, then dip in the egg mixture, and finally coat with the panko breadcrumb mixture.
- For deep frying, heat oil in a large pan to medium and carefully place the coated fish nuggets in batches, frying until golden brown, about 4-6 minutes per batch.
- For air frying, preheat your air fryer to 180°C, arrange the nuggets in a single layer, lightly spray them with oil, and cook for 10-15 minutes, flipping halfway through.
- To bake, preheat the oven to 200°C. Place the coated nuggets on a lined baking tray and bake for 15-18 minutes, flipping halfway through until golden brown and crispy.
- Serve your crispy Spicy Fish Nuggets with your favorite dipping sauces or a fresh salad.

Notes
For optimal crunch, use fresh, unseasoned panko breadcrumbs. Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 2 days, or freeze uncooked nuggets for longer storage.
