Fish Essentials Ultimate Cape Cod Sandwich Recipes

Steps:

• For the cod: Preheat vegetable oil in a deep-fryer to 375 degrees F. Then bread each medallion of fish with flour mixed with seafood seasoning. Tap off excess, and then dip in egg wash and finish in breadcrumbs, ensuring to coat evenly.

After frying, remove the fish from the oil, sprinkle with salt and pepper and place on paper towels. Allow the fish to drain excess oil.

During heating, with the softened butter, spread 1 tablespoon evenly on the top and bottom of 1 bun, and then toast in the pan until browned, about 2 minutes. After the first bun, reduce the heat to medium and repeat the process with the remaining buns.
