Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Food, Cooking, and Game Preparation Blackened Redfish

I am truly blessed with good neighbors and friends. A couple of the lads went fishing out of Mouth of Suwanee yesterday. Airboat fishing. They limited out on Redfish, and gave me all the filets.
I repaid them today by cooking up some blackened Redfish. I used a big cast iron skillet over a wood fire.
I dip the fish in mix of butter and olive oil, then it goes into the seasoning mix. After it's coated well, it goes right into the pan. No extra oil. It cooks in moments, and then I flip it over to cook the other side. Same seasoning mix I used for years in my restaurants. Secret recipe. lol
Served the fish with rice, and Cuban style black beans. There was a salad for those that wanted it, and of course, a selection of ice cold beer and ale.
Life is so very good, my friends.
