If you're in need of a light and healthy dinner that won't require that you spend too much time over a hot stove, give these fish sandwiches a try!
Ingredients (serves two)
Two tilapia fillets, about four ounces each (I love frozen tilapia fillets for recipes like this one)
1/2 cup Panko (Japanese bread crumbs)
1/2 tbsp butter
1/2 tsp Old Bay seasoning
1/2 tbsp butter melted
Salt and pepper to taste
Whole-wheat hamburger buns, lettuce, tomato, and mayo
Directions
Melt half a tablespoon of butter over medium-low heat and add the breadcrumbs. Cook for about five minutes, stirring frequently, until golden brown. Then stir in the Old Bay. Transfer the crumbs to a plate. (You can make these the night before; just store at room temperature in an airtight container.)
Meanwhile, season the fish with salt and pepper and fire up the grill. Grill for about 8 minutes, turning once.
While the fish is grilling, toast the buns and top with mayo, lettuce, and tomato. When the fish is done brush each fillet on both sides with the remaining half-tablespoon of melted butter and then press the fish into the toasted breadcrumbs, getting it nice and coated. Fish flakes when it’s cooked, so it might fall apart a bit, but just scoop up the breadcrumbs and coat it as best you can. Serve on the hamburger buns.
This is a delicious dinner for a summer evening! Enjoy!
