BLACKENED CATFISH PO' BOY (CAN SUB TILAPIA OR SALMON)

Steps:

• In a small bowl, combine the paprika, oregano, thyme, cayenne, garlic powder, onion powder and sugar. (You can omit this step and use your favorite packaged blackening spice mix.).
• Pat catfish fillets dry with paper towels. Brush lightly with oil, then season well with salt and pepper. Sprinkle liberally with blackening spice mix, gently pressing spices onto fish to adhere.
• Coat bottom of a large, non-stick frying pan with vegetable oil. Heat over medium-high heat until oil is shimmering. Add catfish and fry until cooked through, 3-4 minutes per side. Do not overcrowd pan. Work in batches and keep warm in a low oven.

BLACKENED CATFISH

Steps:

• The fillets should be at room temperature. Heat a large cast-iron skillet over very high heat until it is beyond the smoking stage and you see white ash in the skillet bottom, at least for 10 minutes. Meanwhile, pour 2 tablespoons melted butter in each of 6 small ramekins; set aside and keep warm. Reserve the remaining butter. Heat the serving plates in a 250-degree oven. Dip each fillet in the reserved melted butter so that both sides are well coated. Then, mix thoroughly all the spices for blackening mixture and sprinkle the Blackening Spice Mixture generously and evenly on both sides of the fillets. Place 1 or 2 fillets in skillet and cook uncovered over very high heat until the underside becomes deep brown, almost black (but not burned), about 2 minutes (the time may vary according to the fillet's thickness and the heat of the skillet). Turn the fish over and pour 1 teaspoon of butter on top of each. Cook until fish is done, about 2 minutes more. Repeat with remaining fillets. Serve each fillet while hot. To serve, place 1 fillet and a ramekin of butter on each plate.

SLAMMIN BLACKENED SALMON

Steps:

• Remove salmon from package and rub with blackening seasoning on skin free side.
• Use just enough to cover the piece of fish but not so much that you can't see the pink behind the seasoning.
• Heat grill pan on med heat and brush lightly with olive oil (very lightly) Place salmon skin side down on pan and cook on med heat until half of the salmon (from the bottom up) is opaque.
• Flip salmon and remove skin (it will peel off very easily and usually in one piece- I place it in a small plastic bag and tie it before dropping it in the garbage can to reduce fishy odors) Cook another 5-8 minutes until the entire piece of fish is opaque and runs with a white milk like substance (healthy omega fatty acids) Serve immediately with rice or potato and veggie of your choice for a healthy meal that tastes like you're at a restaurant even when you cooked it yourself!
