Ingredients

1 lb fish filets ((3-4 filets))
2 tbsp butter
salt and black pepper (to taste)
1 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp onion powder
1 tsp paprika
1 tsp Italian seasoning
1 tsp Old Bay seasoning
1/4 tsp cayenne pepper (or up to 1/2 tsp to taste (optional))

Steps:

Combine the garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, Italian seasoning, Old Bay, and cayenne pepper (optional) and mix.
Lay the fish filets flat and sprinkle seasonings on the first side, lightly pat them in, and then sprinkle the remaining seasoning on the back side and pat in. This can sit in the refrigerator for up to an hour seasoned.
Heat a large cast iron skillet over high heat for 2-3 minutes, then reduce to medium high and add the butter.
Once the butter is melted and starting to brown, but not smoke, season the fish with salt and pepper to taste, then put it flat in the skillet. Do not crowd the skillet. Cook the fish in batches if necessary.
Let the fish cook for 2-3 minutes on the first side without moving or checking it, then flip and cook 2-3 minutes on the other side, or until it reaches the desired doneness, or about 145˚F. Cooking time will vary depending on the size and thickness of your fish filets.
Remove the fish from the skillet (to prevent it from continuing to cook) and serve warm with fresh parsley or lemon juice if desired.

This recipe calls for trout, but catfish or red snapper would be equally good. Be sure to have a well-ventilated kitchen!

Time 25m

Number Of Ingredients 12

Ingredients

4-6 firm white fish fish filets, i used catfish but will work on most firm white fish.
1 c butter, unsalted, melted
4 Tbsp blackeing seasoning
FOR THE BLACKING SEASONING
2 Tbsp smoked paprika.
1 Tbsp dried oregno and dried thyme.
1 tsp cumin
1 Tbsp cayenne pepper
2 tsp sea salt
1 tsp garlic powder and onion powder.
1-1/2 tsp dried sage
2 tsp blach pepper and white pepper.

Steps:

1. In a mixing bowl. mix together all ingredients for the blacking seasoning. Pour this into a jar with a tight fitting lid. You will have some left over and it will store very well.
2. For the fish: reserve 1/3 of the melted butter for later. Set your grill for med-high heat. You will need a grill fish basket for grilling the fish
3. Dip your fish in the melted butter, both sides. Then coat the fish with blackening mix on both sides.
4. Make sure the grill is good and hot. The fish will cook fast and you will need to watch it.. Place fish in the grill basket and close it so the fish does not move. Place on hot grill and cook for 2-3 minutes till the grilled side is black. Not burnt. Turn the fish over. Pour butter over the side that has been cooked. The fish will be golden brown and the seasoning will be black. Cook the other side for 2-3 minutes. No longer because the fish will burn. Remove from the grill carfully remove the fish from the basket. Serve over dirty rice along with any vegetable you mite want to grill. I grilled Zucchini
