Number Of Ingredients 5

2 tsp. coarse sea or Kosher salt
2 tsp. coarsely, freshly ground black pepper
4 6 oz. halibut fillets, 1/2 inch thick or less
2 tsp. olive oil
1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro

Steps:

  • Coat the halibut fillets thickly with the salt and pepper, as if with a breading. Make a black, cast-iron skillet very hot, virtually red hot. (If you have an exhaust fan be sure it is on.) Pour 1 tsp. of the olive oil into the pan and coat the bottom quickly. (The oil will begin to smoke and burn at once.) Place 2 halibut fillets in the pan and cook them about 1-1/2 minutes. Turn and cook them about 1 minute more on the other side. (You turn the fish when the rim of the raw side begins to whiten.) Transfer the fish to a warm platter. Remove any particles of fish that might remain in the pan and then repeat the cooking process with the remaining fillets. Transfer the fish to the platter. Sprinkle them with the cilantro before serving. Makes 4 servings.

This recipe is a keeper! The fish was cooked to perfection and the blackened seasoning was flavorful without being overpowering. I will definitely be making this again.

This recipe was easy to follow and the fish turned out great! I used a cast iron skillet and the fish cooked evenly. The blackened seasoning was flavorful and not too spicy. I will definitely be making this again.

I made this recipe last night and it was a hit! The fish was moist and flaky, and the blackened seasoning was perfect. I will definitely be making this again soon.
