Big Daddy's Blackened Tilapia (With a Little Something Extra) image

This is Big Daddy's recipe alrighty, but I added a Lemon Aioli recipe as an alternative to the squirt of lemon. I think it's even better.

Time 31m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 17

3 tablespoons smoked paprika
1 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon onion powder
1 teaspoon ground black pepper
1 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 teaspoon dried ground thyme
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
4 tilapia fillets
2 tablespoons grapeseed oil (can sub olive oil)
1/2 lemon, juiced
1/4 cup heavy cream
1/2 cup mayonnaise
1 1/2 tablespoons olive oil
1 teaspoon finely grated lemon zest
1 small garlic clove, finely minced
1 dash salt

Steps:

  • To make the aioli: beat cream in a small bowl with a whisk until stiff peaks form. Fold in remaining ingredients until blended. Cover mixture and chill. Store leftovers in an airtight container in refrigerator for up to 3 days.
  • In a small bowl combine all of the spices. Press a heaping tablespoon of the spice mix onto each fillet so that both sides are liberally coated. Allow the fish to sit for 15 minutes at room temperature prior to cooking.
  • In a large skillet, heat the oil over medium-high heat. Once the oil is almost smoking, add the fillets and cook for 2 to 3 minutes on each side. Sprinkle with lemon juice or a dollop of Lemon Aioli.

The remoulade sauce was a bit too spicy for my taste.

I'm not sure what went wrong, but my tilapia came out dry and overcooked.

This was a great recipe! The tilapia was crispy on the outside and flaky on the inside. The remoulade sauce was also very good.

I'm not a big fan of tilapia, but this recipe changed my mind! The blackened seasoning and remoulade sauce really elevated the fish.
