Making blackened redfish at home is easier than you think. A beautiful piece of redfish, butter, some blackening seasoning and a hot skillet is all you need.

Ingredients

  • 2 teaspoons Olive Oil
  • 3 lb Redfish Fillets
  • ½ Cup Butter unsalted and melted
  • ¼ Cup Blackening Seasoning

Instructions

  • Add the olive oil to a heavy bottomed skillet - like a cast iron skillet. Add medium-high heat.
  • Take the redfish fillet and brush all over the melted butter.
  • Take the seasoning and sprinkle liberally all over. Pat it all over the fish.
  • Once the skillet looks like it's smoking, as it's so hot, add the redfish fillets. Leave to cook for about 3 minutes, then carefully flip the redfish over and cook the other side another 3 minutes.
  • Remove and serve.

Notes

Depending on how spicy/seasoned you like your redfish will determine how much seasoning you should use. I did not use as much as some people do, making the redfish have more of a bronze color to it. I prefer it like this as my kids can't eat it too spicy.
