Method

Preparation

1

Prepare the Fish and Shrimp

In a bowl, mix fennel seeds, chili powder, salt, and black pepper. Rub this spice mixture generously on the fish fillets and shrimp.

2

Prepare the Coleslaw

In a large bowl, combine the shredded cabbage and carrots. In a separate bowl, mix mayonnaise with a pinch of salt and pepper. Combine the dressing with the cabbage mixture and set aside.

3

Prepare the Hushpuppies

In a mixing bowl, combine the hushpuppy mix and water. Stir until just combined and let it rest for a few minutes.

Cooking

4

Cook the Broccolini

In a skillet over medium-high heat, add a drizzle of olive oil. Add the broccolini and char for about 3-4 minutes until tender and slightly crispy.

5

Cook the Fish and Shrimp

In a separate skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Add fish fillets and shrimp to the hot skillet. Cook fish for about 4-5 minutes on each side until blackened and shrimp for about 2-3 minutes until pink and opaque.

6

Fry the Hushpuppies

Using a spoon, drop small balls of the hushpuppy batter into hot oil (about 350°F). Fry until golden brown, about 3-4 minutes. Remove and drain on paper towels.

7

Grill the Lemon

Cut the lemon in half and grill cut-side down for about 2-3 minutes until charred.
