How to Make Cornmeal Crusted Tilapia Sandwiches With Lime Butter
- Preheat your broiler to high.
- In a shallow dish, combine 1/2 cup yellow cornmeal, 1/4 cup all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon paprika, 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper.
- Rub 1 teaspoon of olive oil on each of 4 tilapia fillets (about 6 ounces each).
- Dredge each tilapia fillet in the cornmeal mixture, ensuring it's fully coated.
- Place the coated tilapia fillets on a broiler pan lightly coated with cooking spray.
- Broil for 7-10 minutes, or until the fish flakes easily with a fork and reaches your desired level of doneness. Watch carefully to prevent burning.
- While the fish broils, prepare the lime butter: In a small bowl, combine 2 tablespoons of softened butter, the zest of 1 lime, and 2 tablespoons of lime juice.
- Stir the lime butter ingredients until well combined and smooth.
- Cut 4 rolls in half and toast them lightly. You can toast them in a toaster, oven, or pan.
- Spread the lime butter evenly over the cut side of each roll bottom.
- Place 1 tilapia fillet, 2 slices of tomato, and 1/4 cup of shredded lettuce on each of the 4 roll bottoms.
- Top with the remaining roll halves to complete the sandwiches.
