• Use your all purpose spice or use Tony Chacere spice
• Heat your skillet (preferably a black cast iron one that has been seasoned) to as
hot as you can get it. Indoors turn skillet upside down on you gas flame – it’s hard
to do on electric but it can be done if you are careful!! If you are outside put
skillet upside down on your barbecue flame close the lid on pit.
• Take your fish and coat it with your spice on both sides
• After skillet is as close white as you can get it with a gloved hand turn over the
skillet and place your fish in the skillet very quickly. (some people throw it in from
a ways back because a very loud hissing and a lot of smoke will immediately begin
to happen. (another good reason to do this outside especially if you vent hood is
not working inside!!!) Cook for 1 minute on each side then turn down heat or
remove from fire and cover for 2 minutes. The bigger the meat the longer it will
have to cook after you have seared each side.
