INSTRUCTIONS
1. Mix dry ingredients on large plate.
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. TURN ON HOOD VENT and turn heat to high.
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. 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.
NOTES : Use any type of fish you prefer -- swordfish, redfish, whitefish,
tuna, etc.
