I started making this 20 years ago when I was a Chef in South Florida. I made my own blackening spice and got my cast iron skillet smoking hot(white). That's the key....Good spice and a hot pan. This works with most of your favorite fishes, (salmon, swordfish, tuna, mahi, etc). Serve it with some nice roasted red potatoes, grilled veggies and a blue cheese salad.

Steps:
- Preheat a cast iron skillet for a half hour on HIGH. til it turns white.
- While skillet is heating, place filets of fish in a shallow dish, drizzle 2 oz oil on the fish. turn fish to coat both sides.
- Sprinkle 1 TBSP of blackening spice on each fillet. Rub into each with your hand so it sticks. repeat this on the other side of fish.
- Cut the lemon in half, remove seeds.
- Now the pan is HOT! (Hot pan--that's the KEY).
- Pour the remaining oil in the skillet,(carefully) it will smoke. Now you're ready!
