Cajun Salmon Sandwiches

Print Recipe
Servings 6 servings

Ingredients
  

  • 6 skinless salmon fillets 4-oz.
  • 6 tablespoons low fat mayonnaise
  • 6 French rolls split and lightly toasted, remove some of inside breading
  • 9 tablespoons Cajun seasoning divided
  • Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
  • 12 slices tomato
  • Olive oil
  • 1 1/2 cups finely shredded cabbage

Instructions
 

  • Place a large, heavy skillet over high heat for 10 minutes. Mix the mayo with 1 to 2 teaspoons of Cajun seasoning.
  • Taste, then add salt, pepper or more Cajun seasoning as necessary (BUT BE CAREFUL: THE MORE YOU ADD, THE HOTTER IT BECOMES!). Set aside. Lightly rub the olive oil into both sides of fillets then sprinkle with remaining Cajun seasoning.
  • Place salmon in the hot skillet to blacken. Cook for 2 to 3 minutes on the first side then turn and finish cooking. Cooking time will vary, depending on the thickness of the fish and the heat of the pan.
  • Spread 1 tablespoon of the mayonnaise mixture on each French roll then top with a blackened salmon fillet, 2 slices of tomato and a 1/4 cup of the shredded cabbage. Serve and enjoy!
