Ingredients

Method

Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Fish

    In a bowl, mix flour, cornmeal, salt, black pepper, and cayenne pepper. In another bowl, whisk the egg and milk together.

  2. 2

    Coat the Fish

    Dip each fish strip into the egg mixture, then coat it with the flour-cornmeal mixture, ensuring it's evenly covered.

  3. 3

    Fry the Fish

    Heat vegetable oil in a deep skillet over medium-high heat. Fry the coated fish strips for about 3-4 minutes on each side or until golden brown and cooked through. Remove and drain on paper towels.

  4. 4

    Assemble the Poboy

    Slice the po-boy bread lengthwise, leaving one side intact. Spread tartar sauce inside the bread. Add a layer of lettuce, then place the fried fish strips on top, followed by tomato slices.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Close the bread and serve immediately while hot.
