Preparation
Chef’s notes
To save time on busy weeknights, preparing a big batch of blackening seasoning in advance is recommended.
Go heavy on the seasoning for a flavor-packed crispy crust.
Ensure that your pan is nice and hot before adding the fish.
Avoid moving or flipping the fish too soon to ensure a proper blackened crust.
Using a cooking thermometer is advised to ensure the fish is cooked to the desired temperature.
Feel free to customize the recipe to your taste preferences.
