ingredients

The Tartar Sauce
¹⁄₂ cup mayonnaise
2 tablespoons sweet pickles, minced
2 tablespoons red onions, minced
1 ¹⁄₂ teaspoons fresh lemon juice
¹⁄₄ teaspoon lemon zest
¹⁄₄ teaspoon garlic powder
The Fillets
4 (6 -7 ounce) tilapia fillets
olive oil, for brushing
salt and pepper
The Sandwich
1 -2 loaf French bread (depending on size)
2 medium tomatoes, cut into 8 slices
4 leaves romaine lettuce or 4 leaves lettuce, of choice

directions

For the tartar sauce: Combine the mayonnaise, pickles, onion, lemon juice, lemon zest and garlic powder in a small bowl. Cover and refrigerate until ready to use.
Prepare a grill or preheat a broiler. If using a broiler, line a baking sheet with foil.
Brush the tilapia fillets with some olive oil and season them with the salt and black pepper. Cut the bread into 4 sections, then halve each section lengthwise.
Put the fish on the grill or, if broiling, transfer the fillets to the prepared baking sheet. Grill or broil, turning once, until the fish is cooked through, about 6 minutes. Lay the bread on the grill, cut side down, or broiler, cut side up, and grill or broil until toasted, about 1 minute.
For 1 sandwich, layer 1 tilapia fillet on the bottom slice of bread, followed by 2 slices of tomato and 1 lettuce leaf. Spread the top slice of bread with 2 tablespoons of the tartar sauce and cover the sandwich. Repeat with remaining bread and filling. Arrange on a serving platter and serve.

I'm just me, mother, grandmother...friend to many and a Louisianian. My Cajun and French Quarter Italian descent afforded me exposure to some of the best of foods. My passions are my family, decorating, cooking and gardening. Those very passions push me into constant awareness with always looking for something new to delight the senses, thus my favorite idiom...Inspire me, puuuullllllleeeeeeease! ...and I mean it, too. God Bless America!
