  1. Great sandwich! I made the mayo as directed. The flavors were great. We enjoyed the extra zip and hint of smokiness added by the chipotle chiles and adobo sauce. Thanks for sharing!
     
  2. This was fabulous and very easy! I had never tried Emeril's SW spice mix before. I really love it and will be using it often. For the chipotle mayo, I combined some mayo (I used Vegenaise) with some chipotle salsa. It was a fabulous topping! Made for the Best of 2010 Tag game, recommended by loof. Thank you!
     
  3. Oh WOW this was fantastic! The spice on the fish and the cooking directions were spot on and the chipotle mayo just put this over the top. So quick and easy and with ingredients that I always have around - this is a winner - thanks for sharing the recipe!
