Cooking Steps
- Cut cucumbers into 1/4-inch rounds.
- Thinly slice green onions.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together vinegar, 1/4 tsp (1/2 tsp) sugar, 1 tsp (2 tsp) sesame oil and half the sesame seeds.
- Add cucumbers and green onions. Season with salt. Toss to coat. Set aside.
- Pat tilapia dry with paper towels. Season with salt, pepper and Zesty Garlic Blend.
- Heat a large non-stick pan over medium heat.
- When hot, add remaining sesame oil and 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) oil, then tilapia. Cook until tilapia is opaque and cooked through, 3-4 min per side.** (NOTE: Cook in two batches for 4 ppl.)
- Meanwhile, heat a small pan over medium-high heat.
- When hot, add 1 tsp (2 tsp) oil, then sugar snap peas and remaining sesame seeds. Season with salt and pepper.
- Cook, stirring often, until tender-crisp, 4-5 min. (TIP: You can skip this step if you prefer sugar snap peas cold and crunchy for dipping!)
- Meanwhile, halve buns and add to a toaster. Toast on high for 1-2 min until golden-brown.
- Spread top buns with 1 tbsp spicy mayo.
- Cut cooked tilapia in half lengthwise.
- Drain liquid from pickled cucumbers. Arrange tilapia and pickled cucumbers on bottom buns, then sandwich with top buns.
- Divide sandwiches and sugar snap peas between plates.
- Serve remaining spicy mayo on the side for dipping.
