Deep Fried Frog Legs – Southern Cajun Style

🍳 Method

  1. Prep the frog legs: Rinse and pat dry. Season lightly with salt and pepper.
  2. Set up dredging station:
    • Bowl 1: beaten eggs
    • Bowl 2: flour mixed with Cajun seasoning
  3. Coat the legs: Dip each frog leg in egg, then dredge in seasoned flour until fully coated.
  4. Rest the coated legs: Let them sit for 10 minutes to help the coating stick.
  5. Heat oil: In a deep fryer or heavy pot, heat oil to 350°F (175°C).
  6. Fry in batches: Cook frog legs for about 8 minutes or until golden brown and floating. Don’t overcrowd the pot.
  7. Drain and serve: Place on paper towels to absorb excess oil. Serve hot with lemon wedges or dipping sauce.
