Yield:
Ingredients:
 
1 kg snapper fillets
80 gm butter
SEASONING MIX
60 ml paprika, sweet
3 tsp onion powder
3 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp cayenne pepper
1 1/2 tsp black pepper, ground
1/2 tsp thyme powder
1/2 tsp oregano powder
Method:
This dish generates a lot of smoke so turn your fans on or open a window.



Heat a large heavy cast iron frying pan on the stove until it is extremely hot. (about 5 minutes).



Combine all the spices in a bowl and mix well.



Coat each snapper fillet in the seasoning mix to coat, patting to ensure it sticks.



Cut the butter into 1 cm cubes and toss into the red hot pan (it should begin to smoke immediately). Swirl around the pan, then add the coated snapper, skin side down.



Allow to cook about 2-3 minutes on each side until seasoning on fish has turned black and fish is cooked through. Dont worry about the smoke that results.



Serve immediately.
