Cooking Tips
-
Don’t overcrowd the fryer: Fry in small batches to keep the bites crispy and avoid sticking.
-
Keep it crunchy: Sparkling water in the batter helps keep the coating light and airy.
-
Flavor boost: Marinate the alligator bites for 30 minutes in buttermilk or hot sauce for extra flavor and tenderness before frying.
