Healthy Crispy Fish Sandwich With Pineapple Slaw image

From Eating Well magazine. Crispy fish doesn't have to be deep-fried to be tasty. This is a healthier version with a yummy pineapple slaw. Note: don't used crushed pineapple, it is too small for the slaw. Also, take some help from the grocery store and buy a carrot and cabbage slaw mix. Easy peasy! Our family loved this and will be making it often.

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 tablespoons low-fat mayonnaise
2 tablespoons nonfat plain yogurt
2 teaspoons rice vinegar
1/8-1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
8 ounces canned pineapple chunks, drained and coarsely chopped
2 cups coleslaw mix
1/4 cup cornmeal
1 1/4 lbs haddock or 1 1/4 lbs cod, skinned and cut into 4 portions
1/2 teaspoon cajun seasoning
1/4 teaspoon salt
4 teaspoons canola oil, divided
8 slices thick whole wheat bread, toasted or 8 whole grain buns

Steps:

  • Whisk mayonnaise, yogurt, vinegar and crushed red pepper to taste in a medium bowl. Add pineapple and coleslaw mix and stir to combine.
  • Place cornmeal in a shallow dish. Sprinkle both sides of fish with Cajun seasoning and salt. Dredge the fish in the cornmeal.
  • Heat 2 teaspoons oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add half the fish and cook until golden, about 2 minutes per side. Transfer to a plate and repeat with the remaining 2 teaspoons oil and fish, adjusting heat as needed to prevent burning.
  • Top toasted bread with the fish and pineapple slaw to make sandwiches. Serve immediately.
