Easy Cajun Blackened Redfish Recipe

Ingredients

• 0.25 cup butter, melted and cooled
• 1 teaspoon cayenne pepper
• 1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
• 1 teaspoon lemon-pepper seasoning
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 4 (4 ounce) fillets red drum
• 1.25 cups Italian-style salad dressing

Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and gather all ingredients.
2. In a shallow bowl, place melted butter. In a separate small bowl, combine cayenne pepper, black pepper, lemon-pepper seasoning, garlic powder, and salt. Dip each fillet in melted butter, then coat both sides with the spice mixture.
3. Heat a large skillet over high heat. Add the fish fillets and sear for about 2 minutes per side, until slightly charred.
4. Transfer the seared fillets to an 11x7-inch baking dish and pour Italian dressing evenly over the top.
5. Cover the dish and bake in the preheated oven for approximately 30 minutes, or until the fish is easily flaked with a fork.
