Ingredients

  • 4 Brioche Hamburger Buns toasted
  • 4 Frozen Breaded Fish Fillets we like the Gorton's wild caught cod
  • 4 Teaspoons Homemade Tartar Sauce see notes
  • 4 Slices Kraft Deluxe American Cheese
  • Toppings: Shredded Lettuce Pickles Slices, Tomato Slices or other favorite toppings you enjoy.

Instructions

  • Toast the buns on a griddle or in a pan then set aside until needed.
  • Lightly spray the air fryer basket with cooking spray. Lightly spray each side of the fish fillets then place them into the air fryer basket.
  • Set the air fryer cooking temperature to 400°F (204°C), cook 9 minutes, carefully flip the fish fillets using tongs, then cook 9 minutes more or until golden brown.
  • Remove the fish from the air fryer and allow to rest and cool for 5 minutes. Place a slice of cheese over each filet while it cools.
  • Next, assemble the sandwiches by adding some of the tartar sauce to the top and bottom of the toasted buns. On the bottom bun, add some of the shredded lettuce, dill pickle slices, a slice of tomato or other toppings then add the fish and top bun.
  • Serve with your favorite sides like french fries, coleslaw, hush puppies, potato salad, baked beans, a side salad, or tater tots.

Notes

Zesty Homemade Tartar Sauce

1/2 cup Mayonnaise
1 teaspoon Lemon Juice
1/2 tablespoon of Sweet Pickle Relish
1 teaspoon Caper, chopped
1/2 teaspoon Dijon Mustard
Salt and Pepper, to taste
1/2 teaspoon Hot Sauce
Dash of Old Bay Seasoning, optional
Dash of Cayenne Pepper, or to taste
Combine all ingredients in a small mixing bowl, cover and refrigerate overnight or a minimum of 4 hours. Flavors are better once the tartar sauce ingredients mingle together for a bit.
