Ingredients:
- ¼ cup mayonnaise
- 1 tablespoon dill pickle relish (drained)
- 2 teaspoons fresh lemon juice
- 1 cup panko
- 2 large eggs
- 1 tablespoon water
- 1 (12 ounce) cod fillet
- Canola oil for frying
- ¾ teaspoon kosher salt
- 2 slices yellow American cheese
- 4 potato hamburger rolls
Directions
Stir together mayonnaise, relish, and lemon juice in a small bowl. Cover and chill until ready to use.
Pulse panko in a small food processor until finely ground, about 15 pulses. Transfer to a shallow bowl.
Whisk together eggs and 1 tablespoon water in a separate shallow bowl.
Cut cod into 4 portions (about 3x3 inches and ½ inch thick).
Dip each portion into egg mixture, let excess drip off, and then dredge in ground panko. Repeat with remaining portions.
Heat 1 inch of oil in a medium skillet over medium-high until oil reaches 300° F.
Fry fish until lightly browned, about 2 minutes per side. Transfer to a plate lined with paper towels, and sprinkle with salt.
To serve, place ½ of a cheese slice on bottom on each bun, and top with a piece of fish. Spread 1 tablespoon of tartar sauce on each piece of fish; cover with top bun.
