  1. I love spicy food and I tried this recipe and was really excited! I read through and the recipe called for a hot skillet, putting the above oven fan on and opening windows which I did. I do not expect to have an asthma attack and not be able to breath correctly for 5 minutes!!! No bueno ????
     
  2. I enjoyed these scallops. I did use less blackening seasoning, but even so found the flavor to overwhelm the delicate flavor of the scallops. But overall, it is a quick and easy way to do scallops.
     
  3. Sorry, but I have to rate this one low. I followed the directions as is with no adjustments and it did not turn out at all. The 1/2 cup of spices was way too much for my taste. Very overpowering. Now, on nice note, I gave this recipe to a co-worker who tried with fewer spices and he said it was good.
     
  4. I am only going to leave a comment on this wonderful recipe. It did not work out for me. I think it has to do with the type of grill that we have. While the pan was very hot, it cooled down rapidly and I had to finish cooking them on the stove top. This is really a great idea--blackening in the wide open spaces in place of the confines of the house. I so hoped it would work. Thanks for sharing this technique.
