BLACKENED-TUNA SALAD WITH REMOULADE SAUCE

Steps:

• To make the blackening spice, combine all the ingredients and mix thoroughly. Set aside.
• To make the remoulade, combine all ingredients in a small bowl and mix thoroughly. Cover and refrigerate until ready to use.
• To make the salad, place a cast-iron skillet over high heat for 5 minutes and turn on the exhaust fan. Place the blackening spice on a plate and use your hands to adhere as much as possible to the fish, covering all sides. Place 2 chunks of the butter on one side of the fish and place it, butter side down, in the hot pan. Cook for 2 to 3 minutes, or until the surface of the fish is lightly blackened. Place the remaining butter on the uncooked side of the fish and turn. Cook for another 2 to 3 minutes, or until the tuna is medium rare. Place the tuna on a cutting board and set aside.
• In a large bowl, combine the watercress, endive, tomato and the 16 basil leaves. Add 4 tablespoons of the remoulade and toss to coat. Transfer the greens to a platter. Using a sharp knife, slice the tuna on the bias into thin slices. Lay the slices over the greens and top the tuna with the remaining remoulade. Garnish with more thinly sliced basil and serve.

BLACKENED FISH

Steps:

• Mix first 8 ingredients together, and drench the fish in the mixture.

• Turn and repeat on other side.
• Serve with lemon wedges.

BLACKENED FISH

Steps:

• In a small bowl, mix together paprika, dry mustard, cayenne pepper, cumin, black pepper, white pepper, thyme and salt; set aside. Heat a heavy cast iron pan on high heat until extremely hot, about 10 minutes.
• Pour 3/4 cup melted butter into a shallow dish. Dip each fillet into butter, turning once to coat both sides. Sprinkle both sides of fillets with spice mixture, and gently pat mixture onto fish.
• Place fillets into hot pan without crowding. Carefully pour about 1 teaspoon melted butter over each fillet. Cook until fish has a charred appearance, about 2 minutes. Turn fillets, spoon 1 teaspoon melted butter over each, and cook until charred. Repeat with remaining fish.
