Instructions:
- Pat the fish fillets dry with paper towels.
- In a shallow dish, combine the flour, paprika, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Pour the buttermilk into another shallow dish.
- Dip each fish fillet into the flour mixture, making sure it's well coated.
- Next, dip the coated fillet into the buttermilk, allowing any excess to drip off.
- Dip the fillet back into the flour mixture for a second coating.
- In a large skillet or frying pan, heat about 1/2 inch of vegetable oil over medium-high heat.
- Carefully place the breaded fish fillets into the hot oil.
- Fry each fillet for 3-4 minutes on each side or until they are golden brown and crispy. The exact cooking time may vary depending on the thickness of the fillets. Be careful not to overcrowd the pan; you may need to fry the fish in batches.
- Once fried, remove the fish fillets from the oil and place them on a plate lined with paper towels to drain any excess oil. Keep them warm.
- Toast the hamburger buns or bread if desired.
- Spread tartar sauce or mayonnaise on the bottom half of each bun.
- Place a lettuce leaf on top of the sauce.
- Add a fried fish fillet to each sandwich.
- Top with sliced tomatoes, red onions, and pickles if you like.
