Blackened Fish Fillets
Food Ingredients:
2 pounds Fish fillets, ½ to ¾” thick 3/4 cup Butter 1 tablespoon Paprika 3/4 teaspoon Cayenne pepper 1 teaspoon Salt 1/2 teaspoon Black pepper 1/2 teaspoon White pepper 1 teaspoon Onion powder 1 teaspoon Garlic powder 1/2 teaspoon Dried thyme 1/2 teaspoon Dried oregano 1 dsh Cumin
Recipe preparation:
1 1. Mix dry ingredients on large plate. 2 2. Melt butter in heavy skillet (do not use lightweight or non-stick skillet). Pour off all but 3 tablespoons into 9 x 12 x 1 pan. 3 3. TURN ON HOOD VENT and turn heat to high. 4 4. Dip each fillet in melted butter (in the 9 x 12 pan) and then dip in the dry ingredients, patting the fillets by hand. 5 5. Cook fish on each side for 2 to 3 minutes, being careful when turning them over. The fish will look charred – “blackened” – and there may be some smoke, but not an excessive amount. The blackening forms a spicy, crunchy coating, sealing in moisture and flavor. 6 NOTES : Use any type of fish you prefer – swordfish, redfish, whitefish, tuna, etc.
