A crisp coating of cornmeal is great for grouper fillets, adding texture to this sandwich supper. Mayonnaise mixed with sweet pickle relish makes a quick mock tartar sauce for the grouper.
Cooking cauliflower florets in the microwave saves time and helps it absorb the lemon juice and olive oil dressing. Black olives and red pimentos add to this colorful salad.
- Helpful Hints:
You can use any type of fish fillet.
You can use green olives instead of black olives.

Crispy Grouper Sandwich Supper
Yield 2 servings. Recipe by Linda Gassenheimer
2 tablespoons reduced-fat mayonnaise
1 tablespoon sweet pickle relish
4 slices whole wheat bread, toasted
¾ pound grouper fillets
¼ cup coarse cornmeal
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 tablespoon olive oil
Mix mayonnaise and relish together in a small bowl and set aside. Toast bread and set aside. Pat fillets dry with paper towel. Season cornmeal with salt and pepper to taste. Dip fillets into cornmeal, making sure both sides are well coated. Heat olive oil in a nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add grouper and sauté 2 minutes. Turn and sauté 2 minutes for a 1-inch thick fillet. Reduce heat to low and cook 4-5 minutes. Spread 2 slices of bread with the mayonnaise and relish mixture. Place half the grouper on each slice. Cover with the other two slices of bread. Cut sandwich in half and serve with the salad.
