Crispy Fish Sandwiches with Chopped Banana Pepper Slaw.

We love a good fish sandwich!  These crispy fish sandwiches with slaw are crunchy and light. The fish is served with lots of banana pepper slaw on top. The slaw is simple and super crunchy and packs a flavorful punch. Perfect dish to make when you’re craving a fish sandwich!

It’s fish fry season over here!

We love a good fish sandwich. This fish is pan-fried until light and crispy, thrown on a baguette with tons of tangy chopped slaw to enjoy. It is so satisfying and tastes just as good as a fish fry sandwich you can get anywhere on a Friday during lent! 

I always forget how much I love a fish sandwich until this time of year. The crispy fish… the creamy sauces, some have slaw, some don’t, the brioche or rustic bun… it’s all so delish. I’ve made fish sandwiches with kale slaw and even air fryer beer battered fish!  

Also, I’m not embarrassed to say that I’ve made many of the crispy fish filets from costco at home. They come frozen in a box. And they are fine! They are even good at times. But making it at home like this is superior. 

It’s really very simple and tastes amazing! 

I like to use cod filets for this recipe. I use a simple mixture of seasoned breadcrumbs and panko for extra crunch. Then I just do an easy dredge and pan fry. 

Dip in egg.

Dip in breadcrumbs.

Pan-fry until crispy and golden. 

The fish doesn’t take long at all and it’s why I love it so much. It’s practically foolproof and so much easier than chicken. It cooks quicker, so the outsides get crisp and golden brown and the inside remains buttery and flaky.

Texture heaven!! 

I make fish like this all the time – whether it’s homemade fish sticks, filets like this that can be eaten on a sandwich or in tacos or even added to a salad. It’s SO good and we all love it. 

The cod is also mild enough for my kids to enjoy. It’s just easy and delicious all around! (more…)
