πŸ›’ Ingredients

For the Fish Fingers:

1 lb (450 g) white fish fillets, such as cod or haddock

Β½ cup all-purpose flour

1 large egg

1 cup breadcrumbs or panko

Β½ tsp paprika

Β½ tsp garlic powder

Β½ tsp salt

Β½ tsp black pepper

2 tbsp vegetable oil

For the Sandwich:

4 soft sandwich rolls or thick slices of white bread

Β½ cup tartar sauce

1 cup shredded lettuce

1 small tomato, sliced

Β½ lemon, cut into wedges

πŸ‘©β€πŸ³ Method

Prepare the fish: Pat the fish dry and cut it into thick finger-shaped strips.

Set up the coating: Place flour in one bowl. Beat the egg in a second bowl. In a third bowl, combine breadcrumbs, paprika, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper.

Bread the fish: Dip each fish strip into the flour, then egg, then seasoned breadcrumbs. Press gently so the coating sticks.

Cook: Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Cook the fish fingers for 3–4 minutes per side, until golden and the fish is cooked through and flakes easily.

Toast the bread: Lightly toast the sandwich rolls or bread until golden around the edges.

Build the sandwich: Spread tartar sauce on both sides of the bread. Add lettuce, tomato, and 2–3 crispy fish fingers.

Finish: Add another drizzle of tartar sauce and a squeeze of fresh lemon juice.

Serve: Serve immediately with fries, potato wedges, or a simple salad. 🍟🐟

⭐ Tip

For an extra-crispy coating, use panko breadcrumbs and cook the fish in small batches so the pan stays hot.
