Crunchy panko-crusted fish on a soft bun with tangy tartar sauce — the fish shack favorite, at home.

Ingredients

4 white fish fillets (cod or haddock)
1 cup panko breadcrumbs
½ cup all-purpose flour
2 eggs, beaten
4 brioche buns
½ cup tartar sauce
1 cup shredded lettuce
1 tsp paprika
1 tsp kosher salt
½ cup vegetable oil

Steps

Season the fish with paprika and salt.
Dredge in flour, then egg, then panko, pressing the crumbs on firmly.
Fry in hot oil for 3-4 minutes per side until golden and crisp; drain on a rack.
Toast the buns and spread with tartar sauce.
Fill with fish and lettuce and serve at once.

Serve with: coleslaw and crispy fries.

Press the panko on firmly so the crust stays put in the pan.
