Easy Tilapia Fish Sandwich Recipe With Coleslaw
Ingredients
- 1 lb tilapia fish fillets 4 pieces
- 4 hamburger buns or 8 slices of bread
- 1/2 package coleslaw mix
- 1/2 cup mayo
- 1 egg
- 1/2 cup flour
- 1 tbsp oil
- Salt and pepper
Instructions
- Heat the oil in a large non-stick frying pan over medium-high heat.
- Whisk the egg in a bowl.
- Put the flour on a plate.
- Dip each tilapia fillet in egg on both sides, then put on a plate with flour and flip the fish, so the fish is coated with flour on both sides.
- Put the fish on a frying pan. Sprinkle the fish with 1/4 tsp salt and 1/8 tsp of pepper.
- Cook the fish for 4 minutes, then flip with a spatula to the other side.
- Sprinkle the fish with another 1/4 salt. Cook for 4 more minutes, or until the tilapia is cooked through (flakes easily with a fork).
- While the fish is cooking, make the coleslaw: mix the coleslaw mix with mayo and 1/4 tsp salt and 1/8 tsp pepper.
- Put the cooked tilapia fish on a slice of bread, add the coleslaw on top of the fish, and top the sandwich with another slice of bread.
