Blackened Amberjack:

  • 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
  • 1 teaspoon oregano, dried
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper, ground
  • 1 teaspoon of fennel seeds, crushed
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 4 Tablespoons butter
  • 2 Tablespoons olive oil
  • 4, 5 oz skinless amberjack filets (swordfish would be a good substitute).
Pre-heat oven to 400 degrees

Mix together the first 6 ingredients in a small mix bowling, set aside.

Brush both sides of fillets with olive oil and sprinkle with seasoning mix.
Sear fillets in a hot pan over medium-high heat or on a grill for about 1 minute per side, transfer to a oven safe dish and top each fillet with a tablespoon of butter. Finish cooking in pre-heated oven for 5-7 minutes.

Serves 4
