Ingredients
- 1 tbsp canola oil, plus more for brushing
- 1 cup panko, Japanese bread crumbs
- 1 tsp OLD BAY seasoning
- 1/4 cup fromage blanc, see Note
- 1 tbsp Dijon mustard
- 1 tbsp freshly squeezed lemon juice
- 1/2 tsp tabasco sauce
- 3 tbsp chopped cornichons
- 1 tbsp finely chopped flat-leaf parsley
- 2 tsp finely chopped tarragon
- salt
- freshly ground black pepper
- 4 kaiser or whole wheat sesame-seed rolls, split
- 4 6-ounce skinless catfish filet
- lettuce, for serving
- sliced tomato, for serving
Directions
1. In a small skillet, heat the canola oil. Add the panko crumbs and cook over moderately low heat, stirring, until they're golden, 5 minutes. Stir in the Old Bay and transfer the toasted crumbs to a plate.
2. In a small bowl, whisk the fromage blanc with the mustard, lemon juice, Tabasco, cornichons, parsley and tarragon and season the remoulade with salt and pepper.
3. Light a grill or preheat a grill pan. Oil the grates. Grill the rolls cut side down until lightly toasted. Transfer the rolls to plates and spread with the remoulade.
4. Brush the fish with canola oil and season with salt and pepper. Grill over moderate heat, turning once, until the fish is cooked through, about 8 minutes. Transfer the fish to a plate. Press each filet into the panko and transfer to a toasted roll. Top with lettuce and tomato, close the sandwiches and serve.
