I had a coupon for some frozen fried fish filets the other day. Sometimes I have to cave in to the hankering for a fish sandwich. I’ve made a copycat version of the McDonald’s fish filet sandwich before. This time I decided to make a crunchy tilapia po boy instead since I had a big batch of Kaw-Cajun Comeback sauce on hand.
Crunchy Goodness
I tried this crunchy tilapia po boy two ways. One as a traditional po boy on a bread roll (I used a loaf of French bread), and one on regular burger buns. Both versions were great. The fish was crunchy, the toppings fresh, and the bite from the sauce really kicked these po boys up. They’re reminiscent of the fat-food fish sandwiches you can enjoy today.
