I love spicy Cajun foods. I love salmon. This recipe combines them both into one delicious sandwich.

Ingredients:

6 (6 ounce) salmon fillets

6 french rolls, lightly toasted (hollow out some of inside bread to make more room for the filling)

1 1/2 cups shredded cabbage

12 slices tomatoes

6 tablespoons low-fat mayonnaise

1/4 cup cajun seasoning (use your favorite or recipe that follows)

2 -3 teaspoons cajun seasoning (to taste)

oil

salt and pepper, to taste

2 1/2 tablespoons paprika

2 tablespoons garlic powder

1 tablespoon black pepper

1 tablespoon crushed red pepper flakes

1 tablespoon dried thyme

1 tablespoon dried oregano

1 tablespoon onion powder

1 tablespoon white pepper

1 teaspoon mustard powder

Directions:

1. Heat a heavy skillet over high heat for 15 to 20 minutes.
2. Mix mayonnaise with 1-2 teaspoons of Cajun spice.
3. Taste, add salt, pepper or more Cajun spice as necessary (depending on your preference); put aside till later.
4. Lightly oil both sides of the salmon and sprinkle with the remaining Cajun spice (the more you add, the hotter it becomes, so heads up).
5. Place salmon in the hot skillet to blacken; cook 2 to 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.
6. Spread 1 tablespoon of the mayonnaise mixture onto each French roll.
7. Top each with a blackened salmon fillet, 2 slices of tomato and 1/4 cup of the shredded cabbage and serve.
8. ***CAJUN SPICE MIX***.
9. Mix all spice mix ingredients together. Store in a sealed ziploc bag.
10. Makes about 2/3 cup spice mix.
