INGREDIENTS
Yield: Serves 4
Salt
12 oz monkfish, cut into 3-inch pieces
1 cups chopped celery
1½tablespoons sliced chives
⅓cup mayonnaise
1tablespoon lemon juice
Zest of one lemon
Freshly ground black pepper
2 tablespoons butter, softened

INSTRUCTIONS
Bring a large saucepan of salted water to a boil. Lower the heat to a simmer, add the monkfish and poach for 8 to 10 minutes, or until fully cooked. Drain, then remove the dark veins and membrane and discard. Pull the monkfish into bite-size pieces and place them in a large bowl.
Add the celery, chives, mayonnaise, lemon juice and zest. Season with salt and pepper. Blend until the fish is evenly coated with the dressing.
Butter the cut sides of the hot-dog buns and toast either under a broiler or in a nonstick pan over medium heat. Fill each roll with a helping of monkfish salad.
