Spicy Wild Salmon Sandwich
From Salmon, Desserts and Friends LaDonna Gundersen To keep sandwiches from becoming dreaded deck food throughout the long summer salmon season, I came up with this flavorful spicy wild salmon sandwich from my husband’s love of his salmon hot and sweet. Ingredients2 tablespoons brown sugar 1 ½ teaspoons chili powder 1 teaspoon ground cumin 4 (5-ounce) wild salmon fillets, skin and pin bones removed 1 tablespoon olive oil 2 teaspoons jalapeños, canned or fresh, chopped ½ cup mayonnaise 4 Kaiser rolls or French bread, split and toasted crisp lettuce leaves sliced tomatoes DirectionsIn a small bowl, stir together jalapeños and mayonnaise. Spread on cut sides of rolls. On a plate, stir the brown sugar, chili powder and cumin. Press tops of salmon fillets into spice mixture. Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat until hot. Add oil, heat until hot. Add salmon, spice side down, cook 2-3 minutes or until browned. Turn salmon and cook another 3-4 minutes or until salmon begins to flake. Place salmon on bottom half of roll, top with lettuce and sliced tomatoes. Cover with top half. |
