Tilapia, cooked in a fry pan and blackened with Cajun/Creole Spices. These blackened tilapia fillets are dusted with bold Cajun spices and sautéed until crisp & flavorful on the outside and tender and flaky within.

Category: Recipes
    Prep Time:       Cook Time:       Total Time:   15

INGREDIENTS:
1-1/2 teaspoons paprika
1-1/2 teaspoons light brown sugar
1 teaspoon dried oregano
3/4 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon cumin
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 teaspoon salt
4 six-ounce tilapia fillets
1 lime, cut into wedges (optional, for serving)
2 tablespoons olive oil, for cooking

INSTRUCTIONS:

Combine the paprika, brown sugar, oregano, garlic powder, cumin, cayenne pepper and salt in a small bowl; mix until well combined (use your fingers to break up the lumps of brown sugar). Sprinkle the spice rub evenly over both sides of the tilapia fillets.

Heat the olive oil over medium-high heat in a large non-stick pan. Cook the fillets for 2-3 minutes on each side until reddish-brown on the outside and flaky on the inside.

Serve immediately with Rice and the optional lime wedges. (You did make the Rice?)
