Ingredients

• 4 pieces White fish fillets (e.g., cod or haddock)
• 0.5 cups All-purpose flour
• 2 large Eggs
• 1 cups Breadcrumbs (panko preferred)
• 1 teaspoon Paprika
• 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoons Black pepper
• 0.5 cups Vegetable oil
• 4 pieces Burger buns
• 4 pieces Lettuce leaves
• 8 pieces Tomato slices
• 0.5 cups Tartar sauce

Directions

Step 1

Prepare the fish fillets by patting them dry with paper towels.

Step 2

Set up a breading station with three shallow bowls. Fill the first bowl with all-purpose flour. In the second bowl, beat the eggs. In the third bowl, combine the breadcrumbs, paprika, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper.

Step 3

Dredge each fish fillet in the flour, shaking off the excess. Dip the fillet into the beaten eggs, and then coat it in the breadcrumb mixture, pressing gently to adhere.

Step 4

Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Ensure the oil is hot but not smoking.

Step 5

Fry the breaded fish fillets in the skillet for 3-4 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through. The internal temperature should reach 145°F (63°C). Transfer cooked fillets to a plate lined with paper towels to drain any excess oil.

Step 6

Toast the burger buns lightly in a dry skillet or toaster.

Step 7

Assemble the sandwiches by spreading a generous amount of tartar sauce on the bottom half of each toasted bun. Add a lettuce leaf, two slices of tomato, and a crispy fish fillet. Top with the other half of the bun.

Step 8

Serve immediately with your favorite sides, like fries or coleslaw.
