Blackened Tilapia
(Source: Aaron McCargo)
Blackening Spice:
3 tablespoons smoked paprika
1 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon onion powder
1 teaspoon ground black pepper
1 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 teaspoon dried ground thyme
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
For Fish:
4 tilapia fillets
2 tablespoons grapeseed oil
1/2 lemon, juiced
In a small bowl combine all of the spices. Press a heaping tablespoon
of the spice mix onto each fillet so that both sides are liberally coated.
Allow the fish to sit for 15 minutes at room temperature prior to cooking. In a
large skillet, heat the oil over medium-high heat. Once the oil is almost
smoking, add the fillets and cook for 2 to 3 minutes on each side. Sprinkle
with lemon juice and transfer the fillets to serving platter.
