Blackened Cod Recipe

smoked paprika

onion powder

oregano

black pepper

Kosher salt

unsalted butter

lemon

parsley

Start by making the blackened seasoning. In a mason jar or bowl, mix together the smoked paprika, onion powder, garlic powder, oregano, thyme, pepper, and Kosher salt, breaking up any possible “clumps.”  Set aside.

Pat dry the cod filets on all sides with a paper towel.

Brush the cod filets on all sides with the olive oil.

Sprinkle the blackening season evenly on all sides of the cod filets. Gently press the seasoning on the cod filets to ensure the coating adheres.

Melt the butter in a well-seasoned cast iron or non-stick skillet on medium-high heat. Once the skillet is hot, gently add the cod filets. If your skillet is not big enough, it is best to cook them in two batches. If that is the case, we recommend using one tablespoon of butter per two pieces of cod.

Cook for 2-3  minutes without moving the filets. Using a spatula, flip the filets and cook for an additional 2 minutes. They should flake easily. If not, continue to cook in 30-second intervals until done or the internal temperature of the thickest part of the fish reaches 145 degrees F. when inserted with a meat thermometer.

If preferred, garnish with chopped parsley and serve with a wedge of lemon on the side.
