Halibut Fillet

Sandwich Assembly

Method

Halibut Fillet Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Coating

    In three separate shallow dishes, place the flour, beaten eggs, and breadcrumbs. Season the flour with salt and black pepper.

  2. 2

    Bread the Halibut

    Dredge each halibut fillet in flour, shaking off any excess. Dip in the beaten eggs, then coat with breadcrumbs, pressing gently to adhere.

  3. 3

    Fry the Halibut

    In a large skillet, heat the vegetable oil over medium heat. Once hot, add the breaded halibut fillets and cook for 3-4 minutes on each side or until golden brown and cooked through. Remove and drain on paper towels.

Cucumber-Radish Slaw Preparation

  1. 4

    Prepare the Vegetables

    In a bowl, combine the thinly sliced cucumber, radishes, and shredded red cabbage.

  2. 5

    Make the Dressing

    In a small bowl, whisk together the rice vinegar, olive oil, salt, and black pepper.

  3. 6

    Mix the Slaw

    Pour the dressing over the vegetable mixture and toss to coat evenly. Set aside to marinate for 10-15 minutes.

Wasabi Tartar Sauce Preparation

  1. 7

    Combine Ingredients

    In a bowl, mix together the mayonnaise, wasabi paste, lemon juice, dill pickles, salt, and black pepper until well combined.

Sandwich Assembly

  1. 8

    Assemble the Sandwich

    Spread a generous amount of wasabi tartar sauce on the bottom half of each toasted brioche bun. Place a lettuce leaf, followed by the fried halibut fillet, and top with the cucumber-radish slaw. Cover with the top half of the bun.

  2. 9

    Serve

    Serve the halibut fillet sandwiches immediately while warm. Enjoy!
