Blackened Halibut Recipe

If you are planning to cook this blackened halibut inside, you will need a very good ventilation system. If you have any doubt about this, you can and should cook this outside on the grill.

Blackening Tips: Once you have sprinkled the spices on, press them in as you will lose some of the spices when you cook it.

You want the halibut to be cooked to 145 degrees.
