Ingredients

• 4 pieces Grouper fillets
• 1 cup All-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 0.5 teaspoon Paprika
• 2 units Eggs
• 1 cup Cornmeal
• 1 cup Panko breadcrumbs
• 1 cup Vegetable oil
• 4 units Burger buns
• 4 units Lettuce leaves
• 4 units Tomato slices
• 0.5 cup Mayonnaise (soy-free)
• 1 tablespoon Lemon juice

Directions

Step 1

Preheat the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. You'll need it hot enough to fry the fish to a golden crisp.

Step 2

In a shallow dish, mix together the all-purpose flour, salt, black pepper, and paprika.

Step 3

In another bowl, beat the eggs until well blended.

Step 4

In a third bowl, combine the cornmeal and panko breadcrumbs.

Step 5

Pat dry the grouper fillets with a paper towel to remove any excess moisture.

Step 6

Dredge each grouper fillet in the flour mixture, ensuring it’s fully coated. Shake off any excess flour.

Step 7

Dip the floured fillet into the beaten eggs, coating it completely.

Step 8

Finally, press the fillet into the cornmeal and panko mixture, making sure each side is thoroughly covered, this will make them ultra crispy.

Step 9

Carefully place the coated fillets into the hot oil. Cook for 3-4 minutes on each side until the fillets are golden brown and cooked through. Transfer them to a plate lined with paper towels to drain any excess oil.

Step 10

While the fillets are cooking, mix the soy-free mayonnaise and lemon juice in a small bowl to make a tangy spread.

Step 11

Lightly toast the burger buns if desired.

Step 12

Spread the lemon mayonnaise on each half of the buns.

Step 13

Assemble the sandwiches by layering a crispy grouper fillet, a leaf of lettuce, and a slice of tomato on each bun.

Step 14

Serve immediately while hot and enjoy your crispy, soy-free grouper sandwich!
