GRILLED FISH SANDWICHES FOR TWO
If you are in a hurry to get dinner on the table, these grilled fish sandwiches will be ready in less time than it takes to preheat the grill! To make things even quicker, I used a purchased remoulade sauce, but there are some great recipes for remoulade here on the site. We like simple toppings of lettuce and sliced tomatoes, but feel free to add your favorite sandwich toppings, if you prefer!

Steps:
- Clean the grates of an outdoor grill, and preheat to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
- Melt butter and stir in Creole seasoning and smoked paprika.
- Pat fillets dry with a paper towel, and brush each side with the seasoned butter mixture.
- Carefully oil grill grates and place fillets on the grill for 1 minute. Gently rotate the fish on the grate 60 to 90 degrees, to make grill marks, and continue grilling for 1 more minute. With a fish turner, turn fillets over and grill for 1 minute. Rotate and grill for 1 more minute. Fish is done when it flakes easily with a fork and an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center reads 145 degrees F (63 degrees C).
- Open sandwich rolls and place Romaine leaves and grilled fish inside. Top with tomato slices. Add remoulade sauce and serve.

Steps:
- Make the chutney: Combine 1 1/2 cups cilantro, the coconut, serrano, ginger, garlic, 1 teaspoon curry powder, 2 tablespoons lime juice, 1/4 cup coconut oil, 1/2 teaspoon salt and 2 tablespoons water in a food processor. Pulse until smooth, scraping down the bowl as necessary. Pulse in 1 to 2 more tablespoons water if the chutney is too thick.
- Preheat a grill to medium high. In a small bowl, combine the remaining 1 tablespoon coconut oil and 1 teaspoon curry powder, and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Rub all over the halibut fillets. Lightly oil the grill with coconut oil. Grill the halibut until well-marked and the fish flakes easily with a fork, 3 to 4 minutes per side. Remove to a plate. Grill the rolls until charred in spots, 30 seconds to 1 minute per side.
- Mix the carrots and remaining 1 tablespoon lime juice and 1/4 cup cilantro in a medium bowl. Season with 1/4 teaspoon salt.
- Spread the cilantro chutney on the cut sides of the rolls. (If the chutney is dry, mix in 1 to 2 more teaspoons coconut oil.) Fill the rolls with the carrot mixture and halibut. Serve with sweet potato chips.

GRILLED FISH SANDWICHES
Choose your favorite seasoning to rub on the fish before grilling. You can also use frozen thawed fish fillets if you want. Toasting the focaccia or buns before serving adds a little crunch to your meal.

Steps:
- Brush fillets with lemon or lime juice.
- Rub with desired seasoning evenly on all sides of fish.
- Place the seasoned fillets in a well-greased wire grill basket.
- Grill in the basket over medium heat for 4 to 6 minutes for each 1/2-inch thickness of fish or until fish begins to flake easily with a fork.
- Meanwhile, make spread by combining mayo, mustard and honey (to taste) in a small bowl.
- To serve, spread cut sides of focaccia with the spread.
- On bottom half of focaccia slices, put watercress, tomato, fish, and top slice.
- Serve.
Tips:
- Choose the right fish: For grilling, firm-fleshed fish like salmon, tuna, or swordfish work best. They can withstand the heat without falling apart.
- Marinate the fish: Marinating the fish in a flavorful mixture of herbs, spices, and oil will add extra flavor and moisture.
- Grill the fish over medium heat: This will help prevent the fish from overcooking and drying out.
- Cook the fish until it is opaque and flakes easily with a fork: Overcooked fish is dry and tough, so it's important to cook it just until it is done.
- Serve the fish sandwiches immediately: Grilled fish sandwiches are best served hot off the grill, with your favorite toppings.
