Blackened Halibut Recipe, Super Easy! | Healthy Recipes Blog image

This blackened halibut recipe is so delicious! The inside of the fish is tender and flaky while the outside is crusty and well-seasoned.

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 tablespoons paprika
1 tablespoon dried thyme
1 tablespoon dried oregano
1 tablespoon onion powder
1 tablespoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon Diamond Crystal kosher salt
1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper
4 (6 oz) halibut fillets, (1 to 1/12-inch thick)
2 tablespoon butter

Steps:

  • In a shallow dish, whisk together the paprika, thyme, oregano, onion powder, garlic powder, kosher salt and cayenne.
  • Sprinkle the halibut fillets with the seasoning mixture, pressing with your fingers to help the coating adhere.
  • Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat, 2-3 minutes. Traditionally you would use a cast iron skillet, but I use a nonstick hard anodized aluminum skillet to minimize the risk of sticking.
  • Add the butter to the hot skillet and swirl to coat. Add the halibut fillets. Cook 4 minutes on each side, until the fillets turn from translucent into opaque and white (it's fine to cut a small slit and peek).
  • Spoon the pan juices on top of the fish, and serve.
