Directions

  1. Preheat grill to medium. Brush the grill grates with oil. Toss the carrots, scallions, and lime juice in a small bowl. Set aside.

  2. Brush the fish with the oil and sprinkle with the salt and pepper. Grill the fish, covered, until it no longer sticks to the grate, about 4 minutes. Carefully flip, using a metal spatula, and grill, uncovered, until the fish flakes easily, about 2 minutes. Remove from grill.

  3. Grill the bread until toasted, about 1 minute per side.

  4. Spread 1 tablespoon Spicy Mayo on the cut side of each bread slice. Divide the fish, carrot mixture, cucumber, and mint among 4 of the bread slices. Top with the remaining bread slices and serve.
