Blackened Yellowtail Snapper, Awesome Recipe, Best Flavor
I recently went on a fun fishing trip with a couple buddies of mine on the Right Hook Fishing Charter boat out of Rivera Beach Florida. We caught a variety of fish, but loaded up on Yellowtail Snapper. So let’s go over the best way to cook Yellowtail snapper… Blackened!
What you will need is fresh yellow tail fillets, butter, blackened seasoning, a cast iron skillet and an outdoor grill.
First, fire up your grill with the cast iron skillet on the grates and heat your grill to 450 degrees F or high. You are going to want that skillet super-hot.
After that, make sure the filets don’t have any bones.
Next melt an appropriate amount of butter into a bowl long enough for the filets.
Then completely soak each side of the filets in the butter and set out.
Now, the most important part here is to completely coat both sides of every filet with your blackened seasoning. I like Chef Paul Prudhomme’s Magic Seasoning blends blackened redfish magic.
Once your skillet is 400 to 450 degrees f, place each fillet on. There will be allot of smoke and sizzling, that’s good! Since you completely covered the fish with seasoning, that’s what is burning and the fish will cook quickly.
At two minutes, flip the filets. You may need a metal spatula if any got stuck to the skillet. Then keep the fish on for another 2-3 min.
Remove the fish and you are ready to serve.
In my house, we all love blackened fish sandwiches with onions, lettuce tomato and we top it with a thousand island and mayo mix.
