Blackend, for 6 8-10oz filets
heat large cast iron skillet 10 minutes or more(hotter is better)
melt half cup unsalted butter in seperate pan
dip filets in butter coating both sides well
sprinkle blackening mix on both sides
cook over high heat quickly until underside forms sweet crust
turn and repeat being careful not to burn
Serve with melted butter

That receipe makes so much smoke your gonna want to do it on the grill ;)

I reccomend "Chef Paul Prudhomme's Magic - Blackend RedFish Magic" spices

A Japanese friend of mine went to Florida and had blackened Mahi-Mahi at one of these fancy restaurants.
He said it was the worst fish he'd ever eaten. Well, he had a lot to say about American food but we'll leave it there... :D

This is one I posted in the Cookbook thread Baff started Here is one more that I've tried (recipie is from 30 minute meals) and it's EASY since some of you seem to be cooking "challenged"
Mahi Mahi Steaks with Mango Salsa and Curry Couscous

Mahi Mahi:
1 lime, juiced
4 (8-ounce, 1 1/2-inch thick) portions mahi mahi steak
A drizzle extra-virgin olive oil
Salt and pepper

Salsa:
1 ripe mango, peeled and diced
1 small red bell pepper, seeded and diced
1 jalapeno or serrano, seeded and finely chopped
1 inch fresh ginger root, grated or minced
1/4 seedless (European or English) cucumber, peeled and chopped
20 blades fresh chives, finely chopped
1 lime, juiced

Couscous:
2 cups chicken broth or water
2 teaspoons (1 palmful) curry powder or 1 rounded teaspoon mild curry paste
1/2 teaspoon coarse salt
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
1 handful raisins
1 cup couscous
2 scallions, sliced on an angle
1 carrot, shredded or grated
1 navel orange, peeled and chopped
2 ounces sliced almonds (available on baking aisle)
Preheat grill pan or indoor electric grill to high heat. Squeeze juice of 1 lime over fish. Drizzle steaks with a little oil and rub oil into fish to coat. Season steaks with salt and pepper. Cook steaks 5 minutes on each side on hot grill.

To assemble salsa, combine all ingredients for salsa in a small bowl.

To make couscous, bring broth or water to a boil with curry powder, salt, oil, and raisins. Place couscous in a bowl. Add boiling liquid to bowl and cover. Let couscous stand 10 minutes. Fluff couscous with a fork and combine with scallions, carrot, orange pieces, and almonds.

Top fish with salsa and serve with generous portions of curry couscous.

Have some gourmet chips on hand for snacking with leftover salsa.


Yield: 4 servings
Prep Time: 10 minutes
Cook Time: 15 minutes
Difficulty: Easy


Note I couldn't find seedless cucumbers so I removed the seed circle from a regular one and used it.
