Cajun spiced fish and warm pita come together in this simple but flavorful fish sandwich. Warm pita bread is an ideal canvas for a fillet of blackened fish, generously sauced with a cajun-spiced aioli. A colorful variety of toppings, including nutty Gruyère, creamy avocado, ripe tomatoes, and crunchy lettuce complete the sandwich. The result is an easy, satisfying lunch option, full of healthy protein and fresh flavors.
If you don't have lingcod in your kitchen, try substituting Pacific cod, Pacific halibut, or yelloweye rockfish. These mild white fish will cook in about the same time as a fillet of lingcod, so they're easy to swap in.
For the cajun seasoning, you can use a store bought option, but be mindful of the salt content. If the seasoning blend is high in salt, you may want to use less of the seasoning than the ingredient list suggests. Alternatively, you can make your own cajun spice blend for seafood at home with basic pantry staples.
