Indulge in our Cajun Style Blackened Alaskan/Atlantic Halibut, expertly seared to perfection and infused with a bold blend of Cajun spices. This succulent fish boasts a crispy, charred exterior while remaining tender and flaky on the inside. Served with a zesty remoulade and a side of seasonal vegetables, this dish promises a delightful explosion of flavors that transport you straight to the heart of the bayou.

Pat the halibut fillets dry with paper towels to remove excess moisture. This will help achieve a nice sear.

Prepare the Halibut

Generously coat both sides of the halibut fillets with Cajun seasoning, pressing it into the fish to ensure it adheres.

Season the Fish

In a large cast-iron skillet, heat the olive oil and butter over medium-high heat until the butter is melted and bubbly.

Heat the Skillet

Place the seasoned halibut fillets in the skillet and cook for about 3-4 minutes per side, or until the fish is cooked through and has a dark, blackened crust. Avoid overcrowding the skillet; cook in batches if necessary.

Cook the Halibut

Remove the halibut from the skillet and let it rest for a minute. Serve with lemon wedges and garnish with fresh parsley.
