Recipe Introduction
Posted by: Cittie
List of Ingredients
2 tsp paprika
4 tsp thyme (leaf)
2 tsp onion powder
2 tsp garlic powder
3 tsp sugar
2 tsp salt
2 tsp black pepper
1 to 1-1/2 tsp cayenne pepper (as you like)
1 tsp oregano (leaf)
3/4 tsp cumin
1/2 tsp nutmeg
Recipe
Place all ingredients in a jar and store in a cool dark place. Shake jar well before each use.
Directions:
Here is the quickest and easiest way to make it. On low heat, melt about 3T of butter or margarine in a non stick frying pan (enough butter to cover fish and the bottom of the pan). As soon as the butter is melted, place the fish in the pan, flipping it over to cover both sides with butter. Then generously coat the fish with the seasoning, flip over again and coat the other side with seasoning.
Now turn up the heat to med-high and cook on one side until blackened and somewhat crispy. Flip over and cook the other side. If you need to add a little more butter, don't be shy.
Try not to continually flip over and over. You can take a peek occasionally to determine when to flip it over.
NOTES:
For Blacked fish or chicken (great on any type of fish, especially on denser types of fish). The nice thing about this recipe is that the dish doesn't taste burnt even though you can get a nice blackened look. The sugar and the thyme carmelize and give it a wonderful flavor.
