Blackened Tilapia
I eliminate the melted butter and brush the fillets with olive oil before coating with seasoning mixture.
Ingredients:
1 pound tilapia fillets, about 4 to 6 fillets
2 Tbsp paprika
2 tsp lemon pepper
1 1/2 tsp garlic powder
1/2 tsp ground red pepper
1 1/2 tsp crushed dried basil
1 tsp onion powder
1 tsp dried thyme
1 cup melted butter
Procedure:
Rinse fillets and pat dry with paper towel. Combine seasonings in plastic bag or on plate, mixing well. Dip
each fish fillet in melted butter, then coat with seasonings. Heat a cast iron or other heavy skillet over high heat,
getting it good and hot. Flash fry each fillet with no oil added to the pan, for about 2 minutes on each side.
Serve immediately.
