  • 2 medium russet potatoes
  • 1 tbsp. salt
  • 1 quart deep frying oil

PREPARE HOMEMADE CHIPS PRIOR TO PREPARING FISH SANDWICH

  1. Heat oil in a deep-fryer to 365 degrees F (185 degrees C). Fry potato slices in small batches. Once they start turning golden, remove and drain on paper towels. Continue until all the slices are fried. Season with additional salt if desired.
  2. Fry battered pollock for 4 ½ to 5 ½ minutes and place on wire rack.
  3. Toast brioche buns to desired crispness and then assemble spreading the southwest ranch on the bottom of the bun, then proceed building sandwich on the open-faced top part of bun with cheese, butter lettuce, beefsteak tomato and pickles.
  4. Place fish on bottom portion of bun with SW Ranch on it, then place homemade chips next to sandwich with green goddess sauce for the chips.
