CAPTAIN JACK'S FRIED FISH SANDWICH WITH HOMEMADE TARTAR SAUCE
Steps:
- In a large heavy-bottomed saucepan, pour enough oil to fill the pan about a third of the way. Heat over medium heat until a deep-frying thermometer inserted in the oil reaches 360 degrees F.
- Place the flour in a small shallow mixing bowl or pie plate. Add the garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, black pepper, salt and cayenne, and stir to combine. Place the beaten eggs in another bowl, and place the panko in a third bowl.
- Dredge a fillet in the flour, then dip in the eggs and finish with a coating of panko. Repeat for the remaining fillets. Place the fillets in the oil and fry until golden, 4 to 6 minutes.
- Place each fillet on a roll. Top each with 1/2 cup shredded lettuce and some pickle slices. Finish with 2 tablespoons Homemade Tartar Sauce or serve it alongside.
- Place the mayonnaise, chives, cornichons, parsley, capers, lemon juice, salt and pepper in the bowl of a food processor or mini chopper fitted with a steel blade, and pulse until the pickles are finely chopped and all the ingredients are mixed but not pureed.

Steps:
- Combine and mix mayonnaise, finely grated onion, garlic, hot sauce, pickled jalapeños, cumin, chili powder and lemon juice in a bowl and refrigerate until ready to use.
- Heat your oil in a medium non-stick skillet over a medium to medium-low heat.
- Set up your breading station: one plate with flour, one bowl with eggs combined with milk and mixed, and another plate with bread crumbs. Dry off your fish, season it with old bay seasoning and salt and pepper to taste then dip into flour, then egg, then bread crumbs. Place fish in hot pan. Depending on the thickness of your fish your cooking time will vary. You want the breading to get to a golden brown without burning it. An average thickness would take about 3-4 minutes per side. When in doubt, test the fish with a fork, if it flakes it is done. Continue this process with all of the fillets until finished. Melt butter in the microwave and combine with lemon juice. Drizzle over top of fish.
- Toast rolls and build your fish filet. Add spicy tartar sauce to top and bottom of rolls, add tomato and lettuce to top of bun, and as many pieces of fish to suite your liking.

Tips:
- Choose firm or extra-firm tofu: This type of tofu holds its shape better when cooked and won't crumble as easily.
- Press the tofu properly: Pressing the tofu removes excess moisture, resulting in a firmer texture and better flavor absorption.
- Use a variety of seasonings: Don't be afraid to experiment with different herbs, spices, and sauces to create a flavorful tofu sandwich.
- Cook the tofu until golden brown: This will give the tofu a crispy exterior and a tender interior.
- Make your own tartar sauce: Homemade tartar sauce is easy to make and tastes much better than store-bought.
