COMMISSIONED POST
I’m a big believer in enjoying the simple things in life. Often we find ourselves chasing the big dreams and get lost in making plans that we forget to enjoy the little things. The same can be said about the food that we cook, we tend to throw in all the ingredients and presume that something that takes hours and requires a lot of attention is going to taste epic. In some cases this is true, but just because something is super speedy to put together it doesn’t mean that it’s not just as delicious. This chip shop fish sandwich is potentially the easiest recipe that I’ve ever posted, however, it’s also one of the tastiest.
I’m all about making nourishing meals that are packed full of flavour, nutritious and speedy. With a toddler, slaving over the hob just isn’t possible and with meals like this fish sandwich that’s ready in a flash, really isn’t necessary. Fish sandwiches are one of my not-so guilty pleasures and when I’m not in the mood to cook it’s on my list of quick fixes for lunch or dinner. We always have fish fingers in the freezer because they’re one of Aiden’s favourite things to eat and of course; it means I get to enjoy them too!
Quick and simple, but doesn't compromise on taste. Speedy comfort food in the form of a fish sandwich drizzled with sriracha mayonnaise.
- 1 Young's Chip Shop Cod Fillet
- 1 Ciabatta roll
- Courgette Ribbons
- Sliced Beef Tomatoes
- Little gem lettuce
- 3 tbsp mayonnaise
- 2 tbsp sriracha sauce
-
Preheat the oven to 200 degrees and cook the cod fillet for 18-20 minutes.
-
Meanwhile, stir together in a bowl the mayonnaise and the sriracha sauce and set aside.
-
When the cod fillet has finished cooking allow it to cool slightly and begin to assemble the sandwich.
-
Layer up the little gem lettuce, courgette ribbons, and tomato slices and top with the fish fillet. Drizzle with the sriracha mayonnaise and place the ciabatta lid on top.
Frozen fish has got me out of many situations when we had come to the end of our weekly shop and had barely anything to cook with, which is kind of how this sandwich was born. Fish fingers are great, but sometimes I like to treat myself with a Chip Shop Fish sandwich, which you can now cook at home, thanks to Young’s. Their Chip Shop Cod Fillets are responsibly sourced and the fish is succulent, flaky, and coated in a unique, crisp bubbly batter. They really take my sandwich up another level!
Young’s has also teamed up with Ruth Langsford to create a series of cookery videos to demonstrate how you can use their products in exciting and tasty meals. I love the idea of this homemade chippy dinner for a fuss free Friday night family meal – a great way to celebrate the arrival of the weekend!
I actually made this for lunch the other day and it was ready in record time with very little effort, but maximum flavour. The sriracha mayonnaise adds a mild gentle heat that I love with the vegetables that add a fresh note and crunchy texture against the lovely flaky fish.
What is one of your quick and speedy meals that you like to make when you’re not in the mood to cook? Do you buy frozen fish?

Now this looks like an awesome idea, I am totally going to have to pick up some Chip Shop fish and give making the delicious sandwich a try!
It doesn’t disappoint and so easy to make!
This looks like an incredible treat for a Friday night. We will be trying it out x
Perfect Friday night fish supper. ?
My biggest weakness is fish finger sandwiches, so this is just pure and utter heaven for me! I will most definitely be trying this soon!
Oh fab! I really hope you like it.
I’m a big fan of the Youngs chip shop fish, it always tastes amazing and is so quick and easy. I love fishfinger sandwiches, this is like a real adult-y version. I’ll definitely be giving this a go.
Yes! A poshed up version for the adults. Love that!
This looks delicious. Love the sound of the sriracha mayo on top too. So good!
Thanks Ciara!
It looks so yummy! Thanks for the recipe Jemma.
My kid gonna love this <3
My pleasure! Really hope your little one likes it.
I find frozen fish fillets really useful for quick and easy meals, just like your idea of a hearty sandwich. There isn’t always time to make complicated meals. My version would have loads of lettuce and a good dollop of tartare sauce. Delicious.
They are a handy ingredient to have in the freezer.
I love fish finger sandwiches so this just sounds like a gourmet version of that so perfect x
Thank you! They’re one of my favourites too.
One of my guilty pleasures is doing exactly this! Normally with fish fingers though… xxx
I normally use fish fingers too, but decided to change things up this time. ?
I make something like that at home once in a while. These preprepared fish portions come in handy to save time don’t they!!!
They really do! Great for quick meals.
I’m a big fan of the Young’s chip shop range – so good! Love your spicy mayo suggestion!
Such great quality and I love how flaky the fish is.
Such great quality and I love how flaky the fish is.
I LOVE fish sandwiches. I often have them if I dont’ have anything in the cupboards 🙂
They’re great for when you get stuck for dinner ideas.
That mayonaisse looks awesome, I’ll have to give that a go. C will like the sandwich too!
It has a lovely mild kick!
What a treat! There’s something very casual and comforting about a sandwich and a nice crispy fish sandwich is such a great idea.
I know, it’s proper comfort food and so yummy!
We love fish finger sandwiches so imagine our delight at seeing this little beaut from Youngs! Definitely trying this at the weekend! Sharing the hell out of this too!
Thanks so much!!! ?
You really captures so well. The pictures looks so real and makes me drool over it. Plus the fact that you have an amazing recipes that I keep on following.
Thank so much lovely. Glad you are enjoying my recipes.
Thank you!
What a great idea! I am definitely making this! Thank you for sharing.
Thank you! I hopes you like it.
I Love meals like this… easy, nutritious and tasty. I have a couple of things like this that I use when we have tight time restrictions due to clubs. Fish fingers in pitta or in a flat bread is one of our favourites and it would be very easy to substitute a larger piece of tasty chip shop style fish like this into them!
I love your pitta idea. I need to try that one out.
I love your pitta idea. I need to try that out.
Ah, frozen fish products are the best for speedy weeknight suppers, pleasing adults and children alike.
So true. I love easy week night cooking.
Oh my…. I need to tuck into one of these as a matter of urgency!
Thank you, Helen. So simple, but so good!
