Super-Duper Fried Fish Sandwiches with Street Corn Dip
4 servings
35 minutes total

Ingredients

  • 3 cups vegetable oil, for frying
  • ½ head iceberg lettuce
  • ¼ bunch fresh cilantro
  • 8 slices fully cooked bacon
  • 4 (6 oz) firm fish fillets (such as snapper, haddock, or cod; about 1 ½ lb)
  • 1 (1 oz) packet dry ranch seasoning
  • ½ cup cornstarch
  • ½ cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup buttermilk
  • 4 Bakery brioche hamburger buns
  • 1 ½ cups Deli street corn dip
  • 1 cup crispy fried jalapeños

Steps

    1. Thaw fish, if needed; pat dry. Heat fryer oil to 350°F. Slice lettuce thinly (3 cups). Pick cilantro leaves from stems (¼ cup). Heat bacon following package instructions, then halve widthwise.
    2. Sprinkle fish with 2 teaspoons ranch seasoning. Combine cornstarch, flour, and remaining 7 teaspoons ranch seasoning in shallow dish; whisk to blend. Place buttermilk in second shallow dish. Dip fish into flour mixture, coating all sides. Dip fish into buttermilk, letting excess drip off, then return to flour mixture, coating each fillet evenly.
    3. Place fish carefully into oil. Fry 4–5 minutes on each side until coating is golden and centers of fillets are 145°F. Remove fish from oil and drain on paper towels.
    4. Toast buns if desired. Heat corn dip following package instructions. Assemble each sandwich by spreading 3 tablespoons dip inside top and bottom of each bun. Place fish on bottom buns, then top evenly with lettuce, bacon, cilantro, crispy jalapeños, and top buns; serve.

Always check fish for bones.
