The following recipe and photography was provided by Christina Musgrave of Tasting with Tina.
These Sea Dogs will have your whole family excited for dinner! A twist on a hot dog, this seafood version is made with cod from Heinen’s fresh seafood case. The result is a crunchy, savory fried cod fillet on a toasted bun. Top with your favorite condiments and fresh lemon juice and you’ve got a delicious dinner straight from the sea!
This fun and unique recipe is a great way to introduce kids to fish. I recommend topping with tartar sauce, tomato and Italian parsley, but feel free to get creative with any toppings you like.
