Cajun Blackened Snapper - 4 servings

Preparation: 5 min. Cooking: 15 min. Total: 20 min.
  • 4 skinless red snapper fillets, about 6 oz each
  • 1-1/3 Tbsp seasoning blend, blackened, spice
  • 1-1/3 Tbsp unsalted butter, melted
  • 1/4 cup lemon juice

In a well ventilated area, heat a heavy nonstick skillet over medium high heat 10 minutes, until very hot. Pan is correct temperature if a drop of water evaporates almost immediately when dropped on surface. Sprinkle seasoning over both sides of fish to coat well. Cook fish in hot pan 2-3 minutes, until bottom is dark brown. Without spilling butter into pan, carefully drizzle 1/2 tsp butter over each fillet. Gently turn fish over. Carefully drizzle blackened side of fish with remaining butter. Cook 2-3 minutes, until underside is dark brown and fish is opaque throughout. Serve immediately drizzled with lemon juice.
