  3. Cut fish into 1 inch wide by about 4 inches long pieces; set aside.
  4. In a mixing bowl, combine flour, baking powder, salt and pepper.

  6. In a medium size saucepan or a frying pan, heat oil to 350°F.
  7. Dredge fish pieces in the flour mixture.
  8. Drop the floured fish pieces into the batter to coat, then lift out with tongs and let the excess batter drip off.
