"A copycat of the Filet O fish sandwich found at the golden arches. Introduced by a franchise in Ohio to sell due to the Catholic practice of not eating meat on Fridays. For an authentic "'O-Fish" use 1/2 a slice of American cheese and rehydrated, dehydrated onion. For McDonald's style onions Add 3 parts water to 1 part dried minced onion. Allow Dehydrated Onions to hydrate for about 20 minutes or until fully rehydrated and drain."

Serves:: 2

ingredients

2 breaded fish fillets (Mrs. Paul's, Square)
2 hamburger buns
1 slice American cheese
1 tablespoon mayonnaise
1 teaspoon sweet relish
1 teaspoon onion
1 pinch salt

directions

In a small bowl, mix together the mayonnaise, relish, onions, salt and set aside. This is your tartar sauce.
Lightly grill the top of the buns.
Cook the fish according to the package instructions.
(You can bake the fish, but your sandwich will taste much more like the original if you fry it in oil).
Spread tartar sauce evenly on the top buns.
Place half a slice of cheese on the bottom buns.
Place the cooked fish on top of the cheese slice, and top off the sandwiches with the top bun.

I'm telling you right now - do not toast the bun! Wrap it in a damp paper towel and microwave for 30 seconds. Perfect! Does anyone remember when they changed the Filet-o-Fish recipe and toasted the bun and added lettuce? Probably not because it was dreadful and didn't last long. Steam the bun. Please.

This is the only thing I like at McDonalds besides the french fries. I decided to make some at home, and was glad to stumble across this recipe. Although Mrs. Pauls isn't the exact fish they use at McDonalds this was a good sandwich! We really enjoyed them along with some homemade french fries!

This recipe looks great as I just love McDonald's fish sandwich! However for a more authentic taste: steam the buns, don't grill them.

I really enjoyed this copy-cat recipe! It tasted just like Mc Donald's fillet of fish sandwich...the sauce was just right. I didn't fry my fillet (as was suggested) as I just didn't want the extra fat, but it still tasted spot on. Thanks for sharing!
