Let's Make...

An authentic homemade blackened seasoning lends its signature heat to these smoky blackened Mahi tacos. A kick of Cajun flavor in every bite and ready in under 30 minutes!

Ingredients:

– 1 lb Mahi Mahi fillets – 2 tablespoon butter – 2 teaspoon Smoked Paprika  – ½ teaspoon Cayenne Pepper – ½ teaspoon each Onion Powder, Garlic Powder, Thyme – ¼ tsp Oregano

NOTE:

There may be lots of smoke and that’s ok! If you don’t have a good hood vent, opening a window in a small kitchen is a good idea. The fish cooks fast, so it won’t be long.

Combine the Spices

In a small bowl, combine seasonings. Pat the fish fillets dry and generously sprinkle the fish fillets on both sides with the spice mixture. Pat the mixture into the surface evenly.
