Description

A sauteed blend of onions, capers, and tomatoes tops these quick and easy, Cajun-seasoned fish sandwiches for tons of flavor.

Ingredients

4 (4 ounce) tilapia fillets
2 tablespoons olive oil, divided, or as needed
1/2 teaspoon Cajun seasoning, or to taste
1 pinch salt and ground black pepper to taste
2 medium onions, thinly sliced
1 (14 1/2 ounce) can diced tomatoes, drained
2 tablespoons capers
4 submarine sandwich rolls, split

Directions

1 Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
2 Brush tilapia lightly with 1 tablespoon olive oil and then sprinkle with Cajun seasoning. Season both sides with salt and pepper and place on a baking sheet.
3 Bake in the preheated oven until fish flakes easily with a fork, about 15 minutes.
4 While fish is cooking, heat remaining olive oil in a pan over medium-high heat. Add onions and saute until tender, 5 to 7 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Add tomatoes and capers; cook until heated through, 3 to 5 minutes.
5 Place fish on rolls and top with onion, tomato, and caper mixture.
