Directions

1. Prepare the rice using the Erickson Stovetop Rice recipe.
2. Pat the fish very dry and season both sides with Erickson Homemade Cajun Seasoning or another Cajun seasoning.
3. Heat a cast-iron or carbon-steel skillet with a little olive oil. When placing the fish into the hot skillet, lay it away from you so any hot oil splashes away from your body.
4. Cook the fish normally or continue to develop a darker blackened-style crust, according to your preference. Cook until opaque, flaky, and 145°F internally.
5. Stir butter into the cooked rice to taste. Add Cajun seasoning to the rice according to how spicy you want the bowl.
6. Break the cooked fish into pieces, mix it into the seasoned rice, and serve.
