Blackenedredsnapperfillets Recipes

Steps:

• Mix paprika, salt, black pepper, onion powder, garlic powder, lemon pepper, and cayenne pepper together in a small bowl.
• Combine olive oil and butter in a small, microwave-safe bowl; heat in microwave until butter is melted, about 1 minute. Stir to blend butter into the oil.
• Brush some of the olive oil and butter mixture over both sides of each red snapper fillet. Sprinkle paprika mixture over both sides of each fillet.
• Heat leftover oil and butter mixture in a skillet over medium-high heat. Fry red snapper until flesh flakes easily with a fork, 4 to 5 minutes per side.

Steps:

• In a small bowl, combine the paprika,oregano, thyme, cayenne, sugar, 1 teaspoonsalt, and black pepper. Set spicemixture aside.
• Place the fillets on a clean, dry work surface, skin side up, and cut 3 to 4 shallow slits across skin to keep it from curling up while cooking. Turn fillets over, and sprinkle the top of each fillet with a heaping teaspoon of the reserved spice mixture; pat gently with hands to make spice mixture stick. Cover, and place in the refrigerator for 1 hour.

• Cool the butter mixture for about 30 minutes at room temperature.
• Dip the fish fillets into the butter mixture coating thoroughly.
• Place the fillets on a platter and chill at least 1-1/2 hours.
• Set aside the remaining butter mixture.
• heat a large cast-iron frypan over high heat (until a drop of water sizzles in the pan, the pan must be hot!).
• Add in two very cold fillets and cook 2 minutes on each side or until the fish flakes, remove to a platter and keep warm.
• Repeat with the remaining fillets.
• Reduce the heat, then add in the remaining butter mixture into the skillet; stir and heat.
• Drizzle the butter mixture over the fillets.
