"Blackening" is a classic Cajun cooking technique which involves searing spice coated seafood and meats in a hot skillet so the rub turns black (but not burnt). I think the black crust and white juicy flesh inside looks so stunning! I served this with a simple Corn Butter Rice Salad - refer to the Notes for the recipe. This is adapted from this Blackened Fish Tacos recipe, a guest post here on RecipeTin Eats by Kathleen of Hapa Nom Nom. Watch the video on my YouTube Channel!

Coat both sides of the fish fillets with the Spice Mix, shaking off excess.
Heat oil in a large heavy based skillet over medium high heat.
Add fish and cook until the rub turns black, then flip and cook the other side until the fish is cooked to your taste. (Note 2)
Serve immediately. I served mine with a buttery Corn Rice Salad - refer to the Notes for the recipe.
