Title: Blackened Redfish
Post by: Mannlicher on December 18, 2017, 11:38:38 AM
Fishing from their airboats off the Florida Gulf Coast, some friends limited out on Redfish the other day.  An impromptu get together was held yesterday, and I volunteered to cook if they cleaned them.  I set up a cooking station with two camp stoves outside, by my fire pit.  you do NOT want to blacken redfish inside your house.  Smoke and fumes will run you out.
I used the old seasoning mix recipe from my seafood restaurant days.  Dip the fish in melted butter, coat with the seasoning mix,  cook in a red hot cast iron skillet.  Turn twice.
Fish was absolutely wonderful.  Sweet, tender, spicy and delicious.   :)

You willing to share what's in your spice mix, or do we have to just drool over the pictures?  😉

I am on the road trip his week, but from memory, it is by volume, 3/4 cup paprika, 1/4 cup each, garlic powder, onion powder, tablespoon each thyme, oregano, kosher salt, 2 tsp each black pepper, white pepper, cayenne pepper.
That should be ballpark accurate.
