BLACKENING MAY CREATE LARGE AMOUNTS OF SMOKE. WE RECOMMEND THAT THIS
METHOD OF COOKING IS DONE ONLY OUTDOORS!! (I don't know why they say
that, since they cook it indoors.. Just make sure the room is well
ventilated, I guess...) Suggested Wine: Light lager beer, Sauvignon
Blanc NOTES : Have fun with this dish! It's fun, it's hot and it's
authentic, but don't burn it. Recipe by: Red Lobster Posted to
