Traditional Fish Filet Sandwich Recipes

Steps:

• For the tartar sauce: Mix together the mayonnaise, relish, capers, dill, lemon juice, salt, pepper, sugar and onion in a bowl and refrigerate.
• For the fish: Sprinkle the lemon juice over the fish fillets. Combine the milk, eggs, salt and pepper in a shallow bowl. Put the flour on a large plate. Combine the panko and seafood seasoning on another.
• Heat 2 inches oil to 350 degrees F in a large Dutch oven.
• One at a time, dip the fish into the flour, then the egg and milk mixture, then the panko. Set on another plate or small baking sheet. Place the fish in the oil and fry, turning once, for 3 to 4 minutes total (if you are using the shallow-frying method, cook both sides until golden brown, 2 to 3 minutes). Transfer the fish with tongs to a plate lined with paper towels or a wire rack set in a baking sheet. (I like to hit my fish with a little salt and lemon juice while it's hot.)
• Meanwhile, toast the buns, by melting the butter in a pan and cooking them in it or by buttering the buns and broiling them until slightly golden.
• Top the bun bottoms with the cheese and the fish, then spread the bun tops with tartar sauce and top your sandwiches.

Steps:

• Season fish with salt and dredge in flour. Dip fish filets In milk and coat in bread crumbs. Let coated fish dry for 10 minutes. Heat 1/2 inch of oil in skillet over medium high heat. Fry filets until golden brown. Remove filets to paper towels to drain and season with salt

Steps:

• Prepare the tartar sauce: In a medium bowl, whisk together mayonnaise, pickles and pickle brine, shallot, dill, capers and soy sauce. Season with salt to taste and set aside. (Makes 3/4 cup.)
• Prepare the fried fish: Heat oil in a large, straight-sided skillet over medium. Place flour, eggs and panko in 3 separate medium shallow bowls. Season flounder on both sides with salt and dredge in flour, dusting off excess, then transfer to egg wash, allow excess to drip off, then coat with panko.
• Working in batches, fry about 4 breaded fillets at a time until golden brown and cooked through, about 1 1/2 minutes per side. Transfer to a wire rack and season with salt. Repeat with remaining fish.
• Assemble the sandwiches: Spread tartar sauce on both sides of each bun. Place 1 piece of fried fish on each bottom bun, then add a slice of cheese on top and another piece of fish on the cheese. The residual heat from the fish will help melt the cheese. Sandwich together and serve immediately.

Steps:

• Combine onion, pickles, and pickle brine in a small bowl.
• Mix mayonnaise, dill, hot sauce, pepper, 2 tsp. lemon juice, and 1/2 tsp. salt in another small bowl.
• Place eggs, panko, and flour in 3 separate shallow medium bowls. Season each fish fillet with 1/2 tsp. salt. Working one at a time, dredge fish in flour, shaking off excess. Coat evenly with egg, allowing excess to drip back into bowl. Coat with panko, pressing to adhere. Transfer fish to a plate.
• Heat oil in a large skillet over medium. Cook fish until breading is golden brown and cooked through, 2-3 minutes per side. Transfer fish to a paper towel-lined plate. Season fillets with 1/2 tsp. salt total.
• Spread 1 heaping Tbsp. mayonnaise mixture on one side of each slice of bread. Pile each bottom slice with 3/4 cup lettuce, 1 fish fillet, a small handful of potato chips, and 1/4 cup onion mixture. Close sandwich with second slice of bread, mayo side down, and push down lightly to crush potato chips. Transfer to a platter. Repeat with remaining sandwiches. Serve with lemon wedges and more potato chips alongside.
• Do Ahead: Pickled onions and dill sauce can be made 1 day ahead. Cover and chill.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350'.
• Place a baking sheet in oven and let heat up for a good 20-25 minutes while.
• (this is to help keep the fish crispy on bottom of the fish fillet) while preparing the fillets.
• Set up a breading station with 3 separate deep bowls or containers.
• Add flour, kosher salt and black pepper to one containter and set aside.
• In the 2nd containter, add egg and milk , whipped up together and adding a touch of salt and black pepper , and set aside.
• In the 3rd containter add Panko breadcrumbs with more salt and black pepper.
• Cut halibut tail into 2 pieces.
• Dip each halibut fillet into the flour mixture first than into the egg mixture, and than into the panko breading.
• Set each fillet onto a cutting board or a plate to let rest 5 minutes.
• (this is to let the breading mixture settle on the fish fillet).
• Bring out baking sheet from oven and sprinkle some olive oil over the pan.
• Place halibut fillets on hot baking sheet ( it should sizzle when placing on sleet).
• Bake 30 minutes or until a golden brown.
• Split open the french bread and spread butter over each slice of french bread.
• Toast bread in oven until a light golden brown.
• Add tarter sauce to each toasted side of bread.
• Add the fish fillet to one side of bread.
• Add avocado, tomato and romaine lettuce on top of fish.
• Top with other side of bread and serve.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Place the fish fillets in a shallow baking dish. Sprinkle with garlic, and squeeze lemon juice over them. Dot with pieces of butter.
• Bake for 20 to 25 minutes in the preheated oven, until the fish flakes easily with a fork. Spread steak sauce on the cut side of the bottoms of the buns. Top with pieces of fish, then drizzle with Ranch dressing. Place the top buns over the filling, and serve.
