Ingredients

For the Fish:

🫒 Oil for frying

For the Cilantro Mayo:
🥫 1/2 cup Hellman’s mayonnaise
🌿 2 tablespoons fresh cilantro, chopped
🧄 2 cloves garlic, minced
🥛 2 tablespoons sour cream
🍋 Juice of 1 lime
🧂 Sea salt, to taste

For the Sandwich:
🍞 8 slices of bread
🧈 2 tablespoons butter
🌿 1 tablespoon parsley, chopped
🌶️ Hot sauce, to taste
🥬 Lettuce leaves
🧅 Red onion slices

Instructions

1- Prepare the Fish:

• Season the whiting fish fillets with your desired seasoning by placing them in a bag and shaking to coat evenly.

2- Fry the Fish:

• Heat oil in a pan over medium-high heat until hot. Fry each fillet in the oil until golden brown and crispy, about 3-4 minutes per side. Remove and drain on paper towels.

3- Prepare the Cilantro Mayo:

• In a bowl, combine the mayonnaise, chopped cilantro, minced garlic, sour cream, lime juice, sea salt, and lime pepper seasoning (if using). Stir well and set aside.

4- Toast the Bread:

• Melt butter in a separate pan and add the chopped parsley. Place each slice of bread into the pan, soaking up the butter, and toast until golden brown.

5- Assemble the Sandwich:

• Start by placing a piece of toasted bread on your plate. Add the crispy fish on top.
• Spread a generous amount of cilantro mayo over the fish, and drizzle with hot sauce as desired.
• Top with fresh lettuce and sliced red onion.
• Add more cilantro mayo on the other piece of toasted bread if you like, and place on top to complete the sandwich.
