INGREDIENTS

• 1/2 cup mayonnaise
• 3/4 teaspoon fresh-ground black pepper
• 1/8 teaspoon cayenne
• 4 large crusty rolls, split
• 3/4 cup cornmeal
• 1 1/4 teaspoons salt
• 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
• 2 pounds firm white meat fish fillets
• 2 eggs, beaten to mix
• 1/4 cup cooking oil
• 3 cups tender greens, such as spinach or leaf lettuce (about 2 ounces)

DIRECTIONS

• In a small bowl, combine the mayonnaise, 1/2 teaspoon of the black pepper, and the cayenne. Spread the mayonnaise mixture on the rolls.
• In a shallow bowl, combine the cornmeal with the salt, thyme, and the remaining 1/4 teaspoon black pepper. Dip the fillets into the beaten eggs and then into the seasoned cornmeal. Shake off the excess cornmeal.
• In a large nonstick frying pan, heat the oil over moderate heat. Add the cornmeal-coated fish and fry, turning once, until golden on the outside and just done in the center, about 4 minutes per side for 3/4-inch-thick fillets. Drain the fish on paper towels.
• Sandwich the fish and greens in the rolls. Serve.
