Time 45m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

4 (7-ounce) sea bass, skinless fillet
Cajun spice mix, recipe follows
1/4 cup vegetable oil
8 slices challah (loaf style, not braided)*
Mayonnaise, as a dressing
Ketchup, as a dressing
Grated horseradish in vinegar, as a dressing
1/4 cup kosher salt
1/4 cup cayenne powder
1/4 cup paprika
1/4 cup garlic granules
1/4 cup black pepper
2 tablespoons onion granules
2 tablespoons dried oregano
2 tablespoons dried thyme

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
  • Heat a skillet over high heat. Dredge fish in spices and saute on both sides. Finish the cooking in the oven, for about 4 or 5 minutes.
  • It is also wise to have all your windows open, and all your smoke alarms disconnected, considering the amount of smoke that this wonderful dish produces.
  • Toast the slices of challah and spread 4 of the slices with mayonnaise. In a small bowl, mix some ketchup with some grated horseradish. Spread this mixture on the other 4 slices of bread.
  • *Cook's Note: if loaf challah cannot be found individual rolls: aqua bread, Kaiser, potato, or egg-bread rolls are all fine. Also, cocktail sauce can be used instead of the ketchup and horseradish mixture.
  • Mix well. Store in glass or plastic container with lid.
  • Yield: about 1 1/2 cups
