What do I season it with and do I use oil in the pan?

Yeah the term blacken is a type of seasoning. Let me find a pic of what I use.
Blacken is kinda a Cajun seasoning.
And u can drop a few drops oil on the fish then season to help stick the seasoning. And then oil in the pan to start. Make sure oil is almost hot before sticking fish in. Will help it not stick to pan.
Personally one of my favorite blacken season.
Use it on fish, chicken, steak anything.

Unless my mind is failing again - think I went to Chef Paul's restaurant in New Orleans 20 years ago.
The reduction that he put on the filet mignon still haunts me and my friend to this day - INSANE!
BTW, headed to New Orlean's in 1 week - let the eating & drinking begin!
Be looking out for that storm, it could head that way. If it doesn't, I might see you there!!!Quote:

And RC is right. For a minute thought my plane would be canceled Sunday cause of the storm now it looks like it will miss us and wrap back around and hit LA....which they def don't need now
Oh man, tried a redneck variation of this today. Marinated some chicken breasts in scuppernong wine, lime juice, and water overnight. Steamed the chicken with some broccoli, cauliflower, carrots, and bok choy. Started to add some Napa cabbage but was afraid it would kill it?.
Came out really good. Just added a couple of blasts of watered down low sodium soy sauce.
Thanks for this thread, everyone!
Spinach pesto and provolone stuffed chicken breats. Italian bread crumb crust.
Pretty simple process. This was a first for me.
Pesto you can make or buy...if u buy most likely not spinach though.
Pesto (very rough measurements sorry I don't measure)
4 cloves garlic
(first thing in blender, mince it up)
Everything else can go in all at once after garlic. Just depends how much u make u might need to blend up then add more and then continue to blend.
1-2cups basil
2 bunches curly parsley
1 bag spinach
Salt
Pepper
TOASTED ALMONDS (you can use any nut u want. Just make sure u toast them...makes a huge difference)
.5 cup parm cheese.
Evoo amount depends how thick u want the pesto.
Stick in fridge for a few before stuffing chicken.
These pics should explain the rest.
I bought Italian crumbs.
Used left over pesto to make pasta.
Also ball of cheese was a treat for the wife and I. Burrata cheese. If u haven't tried and like fresh mozzarella....this is a must have.
Any questions feel free.
