What is in Filet-O-Fish Sliders?

• Slider Buns – any variety of slider buns can be used for this recipe. The famous filet-o-fish from the golden arches, is served on a bun that has been steamed. I love to use Kings Hawaiian rolls because once the buns are warmed in the oven they have the same soft, steamed texture and a subtle sweetness. The sweetness of the buns pairs perfectly with the tangy tartar sauce!
• Fish Burgers – you can use homemade or store bought fish burgers. I like using Highliner Brand Fish Burgers. They are delicious and so quick because you just bake them in the oven while you prepare the tartar sauce and you can have this recipe on the table in a flash!
• Cheese – to replicate the famous filet-o-fish sandwich, I use American cheese in this recipe. You can use any variety of slice cheese you prefer but I do recommend using cheddar cheese for the classic flavor.
• Tartar Sauce
  • Mayonnaise – the base of tartar sauce is mayonnaise. You can use any variety you prefer (olive oil based, avocado oil, vegan mayonnaise, etc.). For a healthier option you can also use plain Greek yogurt or Icelandic Skyr.
  • Relish – I like using a sweet relish for my tartar sauce for the best flavor. However, you can finely dice pickles and use those instead. If you have regular relish you can use that too but reduce the dried dill by half.
  • Dill – dried dill adds a tang to the sauce. Dill and seafood pair together perfectly.
  • Lemon Juice – fresh lemon juice adds a pop of freshness to the sauce.

1 Preheat oven to 350°F. Line 2 sheet pans with parchment paper or foil.

2 Bake the breaded fish burgers or fish filets on one of the sheet pans in the oven according to package directions.

6 To assemble the sliders, add the sliced cheese on the bottom buns.

Slice the sliders. Serve immediately and enjoy!

Tips for the Best Filet-O-Fish Sliders

• Fish – I like using store bought fish burgers for these sliders. They are square and 9 fit perfectly on the slider buns. If you prefer to make your own fried fish you can do that too. I recommend cutting the fish into square pieces that will fit on each slider bun.
• Buns – you can use any variety of store bought or homemade slider buns or dinner rolls. I like the subtle sweetness that Kings Hawaiian Rolls add to the recipe but you can also just use regular slider buns.
• Tartar Sauce – you can use store bought tartar sauce for this recipe but I do recommend making your own. It is really quick to make with only 4 ingredients. The best part is, the sauce lasts in the fridge and tastes even better the next day. For a lower prep recipe, you can prep the tartar sauce up to 3 days in advance and store it in the fridge until ready to use.
