Blackened (cajun) Arctic Char
Ingredients
- 1 Arctic char - 1 kg (4.5 lbs)
- 6 T butter
- 2 lemons, cut into wedges
- 1 T Cajun spice
Instructions
Servings: 4. Fillet the Char (fresh or thawed) about 25 mm thick (1-1/2"). Don't be afraid to substitute trout, perch, shrimp, or any firm-fleshed seafood or fish for the char. Melt butter in a cast-iron or heavy-bottomed frying pan over medium high heat. Add Cajun spice and heat thoroughly. Place fillets in pan. Squeeze juice of one lemon into pan. Cook fish for about 5 minutes on each side. Serve with remaining lemon wedges and pan drippings.
