Po’ Boy Sandwich

Preparation

1. Step 1

   Place the cornmeal and Old Bay seasoning in a bag and shake to mix well. Add the fish fillets, close the bag, and shake to coat. (Or mix the cornmeal and seasoning on a plate and press the fish into it to coat.) Heat the oil in a skillet on medium-high heat, until hot but not smoking. Add the fish and cook for 3 to 4 minutes on each side or until the fish flakes easily when tested with a fork. Place the cooked fish on paper towels to soak up excess oil.

   Step 2

   While the fish is frying, in a bowl, stir together the Tartar Sauce and onions, add the lettuce, and toss until evenly coated. Toast the rolls and slice the tomato.

   Step 3

   To make the sandwiches, place a fish fillet on the bottom half of each roll. Spoon on some topping, add tomato slices, and cap with the top half of the roll.
