Smashed Chickpea Salad. It has been over one week since I told you about the Light Wheat Bread (and just as long since we’ve been out of it, sob), a post I ended with a promise to tell you about my new favorite sandwich next.
But instead I told you about Clementine Cakes and then Mushroom Bourguignon and Chouquettes and do you know what happened? Not a single person griped that they were owed a sandwich. Because really, who does that? I take issue with the banality of most sandwich recipes. Chipotle-Chicken Sandwiches. Blackened Tilapia Sandwich with Cilantro Lime Mayonnaise and Baked Red Potato Chips. My sister in law Jamie lives up in the Panhandle of FL and has the best seafood available to her.
I didn’t know how fresh seafood could be until we went to visit her a couple of summers ago and she took us to Joe Patti’s to pick up some fish for dinner. This place is awesome, it’s right on the water and you can see the boats coming in to dock with the fish they just caught. They have so many different types of seafood available, fish I’ve never even heard of before.
I must admit, I am extremely jealous, and I crave Joe Patti’s on a regular basis. Recently Jamie told me about a recipe she tried and loved…a blackened tilapia sandwich with cilantro lime mayonnaise.
