So I decided to do a little deep frying today. Below is the chronicle of how it was fried.
I started off with some shrimp, chicken, and leftover tilapia from another project.
Soaked it I fresh squeezed lemon juice.
Prepped the batter and breading. From left to right is lemon pepper and flower; egg and 2% milk; parmasean cheese and panko bread crums.
Prepping the oil.
My temperature rig.
I feel like this is the best trick for getting a good even coating on whatever you're breading. All of the recipes I have say to dredge through a bowl but I actually stumbled on this from being lazy. I had some leftover breading in a plastic bag one time and rather than dirtying a bowl, I just tossed the meat into the bag. It worked great.
The top pic is the finished product.

I fully support your theory of deep frying everything. As well as it tastes the only down side is getting fat quick. Ry del frying meatballs. Make meatballs, dip in egg and then your favorite coating.

I've only ever deep fried two things: catfish and beignets. I fear if I got too used to it I'd be screwed. Looks freakin' delicious though.
