I have had quite a few fish sandwiches but none as good as this one. This is great fish by itself but it definitely goes well with a flakey grill toasted bun. I used Tilapia and Flounder – both turned out amazing. The Panko bread crumbs make the coating light and crunchy. Where has this recipe been all my life!

wow!! Hands down, best fish sandwich I have EVER had!! I used tilapia and it turned out amazing. Make sure you find a good soft baguette or your jaw will hate you, the grapeseed oil is a MUST....also with the sauce, you can omit the sardines without losing flavor...making this again tonight...had to write a review because this sandwich is over the top tastey!

I used fresh caught striped bass and it was outstanding. That particular fish was so mild, I think it would be even better with catfish. The sauce is killer. I added pickles, but ended up taking them off--not needed. The sauce would be great with fried oysters!
