Cajun Fish Sandwich

I just got home from a fabulous game of shinny hockey at an outdoor rink in the neighbourhood and was starving- which is quite often when I come up with some great inspiration. This was one of those times!

What I had was a Cajun filet of snapper with some home made tartar sauce on some ciabatta toast. Not common after hockey grub, but none the less delicious.

Stu's tartar sauce (measurements are approximate I really just threw things together)
1 tsp dill pickle (diced finely)
5-6 capers
2 tbsp mayo
1 tsp lemon juice

I used a Cajun rub I had lying around to coat the snapper, if you don't have some lying around try paprika, ground black pepper, dried thyme, onion powder, garlic powder and some paprika. I pan fried the snapper quickly while I threw the ciabatta in the toaster. Assemble the sandwich and enjoy.

While the sandwich was fabulous, there was no happy ending- I didn't have any nice white wine or even a beer in the house. I chased this sammie down with a diet Pepsi. I know, how disappointing.
