How To Blacken Fish ~ Best Blackened Fish Recipes | Blackened Seasoning & MORE

Blackening fish is a cooking technique using melted butter and sprinkle a combination of herbs, spices, and thyme (an aromatic perennial, evergreen herb). The characteristic of a blackened fish results from the combination of those ingredients. While this is popular in Cajun cuisine, there was an interesting contemporary cuisine that copies this technique. This technique does not only apply to fish, but also with steak and chicken cutlets.

Blackened Tilapia

Tilapia is vastly used in every dish because of its soft, tender meat and it’s easy to prepare because of its natural mild-sweet flavor. For the Blackened Tilapia ingredients, you have to prepare 4 tilapia fish, 1 slice of lemon, 1 tablespoon of canola or olive oil, and 2 tablespoons of butter. Meanwhile, for the Blackened Seasoning preparation, the ingredients are garlic powder, salt, pepper, paprika, oregano, ground cumin, and brown sugar.

The instruction is pretty simple and manageable: combine the blackened seasonings and the brown sugar in a small bowl while rubbing over the fish and pan-fry the fish. Heat the oil and butter in a frying pan or skillet over medium to high heat. When the simmers, add the seasoned fish and drop a few lemon slices and cook until brown per side. After cooking, serve it in a bowl and add the remaining lemon.
