This Spicy Fish Sandwich with Jalapeño Cole Slaw is so easy, fast and tastes delicious!!!
Spicy Fish Sandwich & Jalapeño Cole Slaw
Don’t you just love easy meals? If you’ve been reading along with my little blog for any length of time, you know that we love our fish and seafood! Eric fishes a lot in the Spring and Fall, but in his old age, he has decided that he doesn’t like ice fishing as much as he once did! By the time January comes, we are pretty much out of fresh fish! Gorton’s Beer Battered Fillets to the rescue!
Now we can still incorporate fish in our diets, even in the middle of winter! And, honestly, it couldn’t be easier to incorporate fish into your diet with Gorton’s! And for all you Catholics out there, Lent is fast approaching!
The spicy aioli and spicy cole slaw are both made with my candied jalapeños! (If you haven’t noticed we are slightly obsessed with them of late!)
You can find these Gorton’s Beer Battered Fillets at Walmart! Conveniently located in the freezer aisle! This fish is 100% pollock fillets!
If you have mandolin to cut the cabbage, (or use precut from Walmart’s produce aisle) you can have this entire meal ready for the table in 25 minutes!
Did you know the American Heart Association recommends eating fish twice a week? Gorton’s Beer Battered Fish Fillets are 100% wild caught pollock! You can learn more on Gorton’s website, or their Facebook page

Even if we do have fresh fish in the winter, sometimes is easier to buy ready one and beer batter sounds like a treat. I love your combination of aioli and candy jalapeno. I need to make it as well.
Binky
Thank you Laura! It is very handy to have ready to go products in the freezer for a quick and easy meal!!

Those beer battered fish fillet look delicious and they’re so handy for a quick meal, paired with your wonderful cole slaw, what a great fish burger, YUM!

Oh my that is a towering sandwich, sounds lovely though and well worth getting messy over 😀 Ice fishing is typically very popular here but we are in the middle of the mildest winter we have seen in our 10 years here and no fear of any ice on our local lake 😮
Binky
That’s funny Brian! We’ve had the coldest winter we’ve had in 10 years! Thanks so much for your comment! Totally worth getting messy over!
Pam Greer
I absolutely love how you took those fish filets to the next level!! That is a sandwich that I would gladly eat every Friday during Lent! I’m the oddball that always got the fish sandwich at MacDonalds instead of a hamburger!
Binky
Thanks so much for your kind words, Pam! i preferred the fish sandwich as well, even at McDonald’s!
Elaine
Yum! I love fish sandwiches. But I doubly love SPICY fish sandwiches! I have got to try your recipe as it looks so delicious and right up my alley!
Binky
Thanks so much, Elaine! If you don’t add a lot of the jalapeno, it won’t be too spicy for C either. Eric likes it.
Traci
OK now I totally want this for breakfast right now. I love a good fish sandwich but I think you hooked me with the jalapeño coleslaw. Thanks for sharing! 🙂
Binky
Haha! That would be a big breakfast, for sure! Thanks Traci!

Oh wow this is exactly the kind of dinner I would love to eat just about every single day! I love fish sandwiches, and with the coleslaw it sounds and looks simply delicious!
Binky
Thanks so much, Natalie! It was super good! Of course I had to feed the monster double-decker to my 27 year old son! Too much for a normal human being!!
