Sardine Po’Boy

⚽ World Cup 2018 Game 52 – Croatia vs. Denmark

The sardine po’boy highlights the Croatians’s love of oily fish that is brightened by a Danish inspired slaw. A crusty french bread is stuffed with crispy pan fried sardines (fresh and not from a can) and topped with tomatoes and a dill remoulade slaw.

Instructions

1. Made the remoulade sauce and set aside. You also need it for the slaw.
2. In a bowl, add all the ingredients for the remoulade slaw and mix well. Cover and refrigerate.
3. Lay the sardine filets flat on a plate, skin side down. Season with salt + pepper + paprika.
4. In a deep dish, add the flour for dredging. Have the eggs in another deep dish with the beaten egg. Dredge the sardine in the flour, then dip in the egg, and then coat it again with flour.
5. Heat a skillet on medium and add 4 TBSP of olive oil. Cook 4 of the fish at a time, 3 minutes on each side. Remove the fish and place it on a paper towel-lined plate.
6. To assemble the sandwich, split open the french bread and spread remoulade on the inside. Place two pieces of the fried sardine on the bottom. Top with sliced tomatoes and the slaw. Enjoy!
