In a 8 inch skillet, heat oil over medium high heat for 2 minutes

In medium bowl, whisk together flour, milk, beer, egg, salt and pepper until combined. Cover and chill batter for 30 min.

Dip four pieces of the fish in the batter, turning to coat and let excess batter drip off.

Fry the fish pieces in the hot oil about 4 minutes until golden brown and fish flakes easily

Transfer to paper towels let stand to drain.
