McDonald’s Filet-O-Fish
INGREDIENTS:
For the fish fillets:
4 fish fillets (such as cod or haddock), about 4-6 oz each
1 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 tsp black pepper
1/4 tsp garlic powder
1/4 tsp paprika
Vegetable oil for frying
For assembly:
4 hamburger buns
Tartar sauce (homemade or store-bought)
Sliced American cheese
Sliced dill pickles
Shredded lettuce (optional)
Instructions:
Pat dry the fish fillets with paper towels to remove excess moisture.
In a shallow bowl, combine the flour, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and paprika.
Dredge each fish fillet in the seasoned flour mixture, shaking off any excess.
In a large skillet, heat enough vegetable oil over medium-high heat to shallow fry the fish fillets. Fry the fish fillets for about 3-4 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Drain on paper towels.
Toast the hamburger buns lightly.
To assemble each sandwich, spread tartar sauce on both halves of the toasted bun.
Place a slice of American cheese on the bottom half of each bun.
Place a fried fish fillet on top of the cheese.
Top each fish fillet with sliced dill pickles and shredded lettuce (if using).
Close the sandwich with the top half of the bun.
Serve immediately and enjoy your homemade McDonald’s Filet-O-Fish sandwiches!
