 Blackened Amberjack. 

No,get that thought out of your minds!!!!!

Bacon Grease gets the fishy out of it........

Ingredients
 
1 (1-pound) amberjack fillet
1 tablespoon paprika
2 teaspoons onion powder
2 teaspoons garlic powder
1 teaspoon dried thyme
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1 teaspoon black pepper
1/2 teaspoon ground red pepper
Cooking spray
 
 
 

How to Make It
Cut fillet into 4 equal pieces. Combine paprika and next 6 ingredients in a small bowl; stir well. Dredge fish in spice mixture; let stand 5 minutes.
Coat a large cast-iron skillet with cooking spray; place over high heat until very hot. Add fish, and cook 3 minutes. Turn fish, and cook 3 to 4 additional minutes or until fish flakes easily when tested with a fork. Fish should look charred. (You may prefer to do this procedure outside due to the small amount of smoke that is created.)

I thought I just detected the odor of burnt/blackened amberjack! This doesn't look too bad! Thanks for sharing your culinary expertise! I'm one of those types that has trouble boiling water. The helpful preparation tips were much appreciated. Flaky fish seems to be the catch du jour!

Who knew? Fillet in four pieces and should be charred. Love thyme, oregano and paprika with lots of garlic, yum.

I saw a funny graphic on Facebook earlier, about how to make blackened chicken:

Preheat oven to 400
Rub spices on chicken, place in oven
Go check Facebook and forget about the chicken.

I saved this recipe w/ a nifty little bookmarklet called "PrintFriendly" Looks like it would work on catfish or any game fish like bass or crappie.
