Method

Fish Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Fish

    Rinse the fish fillets under cold water and pat them dry with paper towels.

  2. 2

    Season the Fish

    In a bowl, combine the olive oil, blackening seasoning, salt, and pepper. Rub this mixture over the fish fillets evenly.

  3. 3

    Cook the Fish

    Preheat a grill or skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the fish for about 4-5 minutes on each side until cooked through and flaky.

Tartar Sauce

  1. 4

    Make the Tartar Sauce

    In a mixing bowl, combine the mayonnaise, dill pickles, lemon juice, capers, and fresh dill. Stir until well mixed. Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper to taste.

Sandwich Assembly

  1. 5

    Toast the Buns

    Toast the burger buns on the grill or in a toaster until golden brown.

  2. 6

    Assemble the Sandwich

    On the bottom half of each bun, place a lettuce leaf, followed by a hot fish fillet. Top with tomato slices, pickle slices, and a generous amount of tartar sauce. Cover with the top half of the bun.
