Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pieces White fish fillets (e.g., cod or tilapia)
- 0.5 cups All-purpose flour
- 1 large Egg
- 1 cup Breadcrumbs
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 0.25 teaspoons Black pepper
- 0.25 teaspoons Garlic powder
- 0.25 cups Vegetable oil
- 2 pieces Swiss cheese slices
- 2 tablespoons Tartar sauce
- 2 pieces Lettuce leaves
- 2 pieces Burger buns
Instructions
Pat the fish fillets dry with a paper towel and season both sides with salt, black pepper, and garlic powder.
Set up a dredging station with three shallow bowls: one for the flour, one for the beaten egg, and one for the breadcrumbs.
Dredge each fish fillet first in the flour, then dip it into the egg, and finally coat it evenly with breadcrumbs. Shake off any excess at each step.
Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Once the oil is hot, add the fish fillets and cook for 3-4 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Remove from the skillet and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.
While the fish is still hot, place a slice of Swiss cheese on top of each fillet and let the residual heat slightly melt the cheese.
Toast the burger buns lightly in the skillet for about 1 minute, or until warm and slightly crispy.
Assemble the sandwiches by spreading 1 tablespoon of tartar sauce on the bottom half of each bun. Add a lettuce leaf, followed by the cheese-topped fish fillet, and finish with the top half of the bun.
Serve immediately and enjoy your homemade Fish N Swiss sandwiches!
