BLACKENED ALASKA SALMON PO BOY SANDWICH
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
4 Alaska salmon steaks or fillets (4-6 oz. each), boneless and skinless
4 6-inch French rolls, lightly toasted, remove some of inside breading
1 cup shredded cabbage (mix of green and red, if possible)
8 slices tomato
4 tbsp. low fat mayonnaise
1/4 cup plus 1-2 tsp. prepared Cajun spice
oil
salt and pepper, to taste
Heat a heavy skillet over high heat for several minutes. Mix mayonnaise with 1-2 tsp. of Cajun spice. Taste, add salt, pepper or more Cajun spice as necessary; hold aside. Lightly oil both sides of the salmon steaks/fillets and sprinkle with the remaining Cajun spice (the more you add, the hotter it becomes). Place salmon in the hot skillet to blacken; cook 2-3 minutes on the first side, turn and finish cooking. Cooking time will vary based on the thickness of fish and the heat of pan. Spread 1 tbsp. of the mayonnaise mixture onto each French roll. Top each with a blackened salmon steak/fillet, 2 slices of tomato and 1/4 cup of the shredded cabbage and serve. Makes 4 servings.
