"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!
