I thot this spicy fish was yummy good & so easy to fix! I admit to using haddock in place of the halibut & going a little light on the cayenne for the sake of my DH & his tender Icelandic palate. I used a sml sieve to spread the spice mix over the fish fillets as evenly as I could & gave mine a heavier dose than I gave to DH. He liked it too & tasted mine, but then said his lighter version was perfect for him. I am so happy to have the spice mix leftover & plan to use it liberally on my fish, chicken, etc. I esp like the Cajun blackened genre & this gets me closer to it than my No Atlantic locale permits. Thx for sharing this w/us (mostly me!). -
I love this rub, I followed the instuctions except I didn't add the salt. I just put that on before lightly because of my high blood pressure. -
Blackened fish taste without getting the house all smokey! Next time I'll coat both sides of the fish, as I am a spice lover. We enjoyed this very much....thanks for sharing the recipe. -
It was okay. cooked it on foil in the barbeque as halibut is quite a fragrant fish and the house seems to absorb the smell. -
5 star plus. I was worried when I slide this into the oven that the spice would overpower the halibut - Not so - It is perfect to enhance the flavor of the fish. I am so glad that I made the whole spice recipe because it will be a favorite - I didn't use any butter and still Mmmm I placed a piece of foil lightly over the fish for the first 5 minutes of broiling so the spices didn't get too dark. Annacia this recipe will be used over & over again both on halibut and other fish Thanks for posting
