This is a super fun summer dish that can be modified in so many different ways - from how you season the fish, to how you top the sandwich. If you want to show off your creative side, this sandwich truly allows you to concoct a tasty work of art to your liking.
Personally, I really enjoy the kick the blackening seasoning gives, the color and the crunch from the cabbage, and the mild cool down and fattiness the Avo gives. A nice lime wedge really enhances the dish, provides some acidity and makes it pop.
This sandwich makes a perfect, light summer lunch for 2. I like to pair it with a side of my favorite seasoned french fries and a nice ice cold beer.
