Fried Fish Salad

Why Fried Fish Salad?

Fried Fish Salad – A delightful choice for seafood lovers, this salad brings together golden fried fish with crisp greens for a satisfying yet light meal. We use tender fillets of white fish (tilapia, known for its mild, clean taste) and coat them in a light seasoned batter. The fish fillets are then fried until crispy and golden on the outside, while remaining flaky and moist inside. These fish pieces – think fish-fry style fillets cut into portions – are placed atop a fresh salad mix of romaine lettuce, spinach, and other greens. We add cherry tomatoes, sliced red onions, and cucumbers to brighten up the bowl, and often include a lemon wedge on the side. A squeeze of lemon over the warm fried fish really wakes up the flavors and cuts through the richness, giving the dish a lovely zing.

The contrast of textures in the Fried Fish Salad is fantastic: the fish’s crunchy coating and delicate flakiness play against the crisp snap of the veggies. To complement the fish, we recommend a tangy dressing. Many guests enjoy it with a drizzle of creamy dill sauce or our house-made tartar-like dressing, which includes pickled relish and herbs – this adds a classic seafood pairing taste. If you prefer something lighter, a simple vinaigrette with a hint of lemon works great too, effectively turning this into a deconstructed fish-and-chips (minus the chips, plus salad!).

One of the best things about this salad is that it’s filling but doesn’t feel heavy. You get a good dose of lean protein from the fish, plus fiber and vitamins from all the vegetables. It’s a wonderful alternative to a fried fish sandwich or fish-and-chips platter for those who want to cut back on carbs. The Fried Fish Salad also caters to pescatarians and anyone looking to change up their salad routine with some seafood. The fish is fried to order, so it arrives fresh and hot on your salad, almost like croutons made of fish! Each bite gives you a bit of everything – a piece of crisp fish, cool lettuce, maybe a burst of tomato – and it’s a surprisingly addictive combination.

If you’re a fan of dishes like fish tacos or seafood platters, you’ll find familiar comfort here, but with the refreshing twist of a salad. It’s a unique East-meets-West creation that has become a quiet favorite on our menu. Don’t forget to try it with a dash of our tangy chili lime dressing if you like a hint of spice – it takes the flavors up another notch. Crunchy, flavorful, and wholesome, the Fried Fish Salad might just redefine how you think about “fish salad.”

We take care to ensure each salad is as attractive as it is delicious – vibrant greens and veggies provide fiber and crunch, while the grilled or fried toppings add protein and indulgence. The combination of warm, spiced meat or fish with cool, crisp salad creates a wonderful contrast in each bite. Many guests enjoy pairing these salads with our mint yogurt raita or a squeeze of lemon for extra zing, though they’re flavorful enough to enjoy as-is. If you’re counting calories or carbs, or simply love a good salad, this category has you covered without compromising on the bold flavors you expect from Kababees.
