While I was over in the states I just had to cook alligator while watching swamp people on History, I fried a whole batch up and the whole family loved it. I decided on Cajun seasoning as the swamp people are of Cajun origin. Nice and spicy snappy bites of alligator tail fillet. These tender melt in your mouth bites were even better with some original Louisiana hot sauce and cool blue cheese dip, I just buffaloed a gator!
Ingredients
(serves 4)
454g bag Alligator tail fillet
1 tub Cajun spice mix
1 cup AP flour
1/2 teaspoon sea salt
1 ltr peanut oil for frying
Heat the oil to 180 degrees C, place the Cajun seasoning, salt and flour in a large bowl and mix to combine. Dust the alligator bites in the Cajun seasoned flour and gently tap off any excess flour.
In small batches place the seasoned alligator in the hot oil and fry for 2 to 3 minutes until lightly golden brown, remove from the oil and drain on some kitchen paper, serve hot with sides of Louisiana hot sauce and a creamy blue cheese dip, that’s it.
