Alligator Hush Puppies

1. 1

   Heat oil to 365 F in a deep fryer, or per manufacturer's instructions.

2. 2

   In a skillet, saute alligator meat until done. Set aside.

3. 3

   In a medium mixing bowl, combine all other ingredients, mixing well. Add sauteed alligator and stir to blend. Let stand for 10 minutes.

4. 4

   Use a serving spoon to scoop up tablespoon size pieces of batter and gently drop them into the oil; rinse and dry the spoon as needed to keep the batter from sticking.

5. 5

   Cook the hush puppies, 8 to 10 at a time, until golden brown.

6. 6

   Remove from the oil with a slotted spoon and roll on paper towels to briefly drain. Serve hot with your favorite dipping sauce.
