Something as delicious as these fish stick po’ boys shouldn’t be this easy to make. Use fresh veggies, a quick homemade garlic aoli, and you’re in for a treat!
To make aioli, wrap half a head of garlic in foil, drizzled with a little olive oil and a pinch of salt. Roast garlic at 350 degrees F. for about 20-25 minutes until garlic cloves are tender and browned.
Let garlic cool and then mix together with other aioli ingredients. You can use a small food processor for this if you have one or just mash the cloves together with the salt and lemon and then stir in the mayo in a small bowl.
Cook the fish sticks according to package. I prefer the pan-seared method which is faster and leads to a beautifully crispy crust. Baking also works though if you are making a bunch.
Make a sandwich by slathering a toasted soft roll with garlic aioli. Then add shredded lettuce, a few thin slices of tomato, and a few fish sticks. Eat immediately!
