Jamaican Jerk Fish
Recipe video above. Jerk seasoning adds a stack of flavour and makes the surface crispy too. Quick way to make a dish that punches way above its weight for effort vs results. I've used it for white fish fillets here but it will be excellent with salmon, prawns/shrimp, chicken or turkey.Spiciness - Packs a decent punch! See note for how to control.Jamaican menu week!

📝 Preparation Steps
1
Jerk Spice Blend - Mix the Jerk Seasoning spices together in a bowl then spread in a small tray that is just large enough to fit one fish fillet.
2
Coat fish - Pat fish dry with a paper towel. Then coat both sides of each fillet with the jerk seasoning, pressing to adhere. Shake off excess, place on a clean plate and coat remaining fish.
3
Cook fish - Heat half the oil in a large non-stick pan over high heat. When you see small wisps of smoke, place 2 fillets presentation side down and cook for ⏱️ 2 minutes.
4
Flip - the spice crust should be a deep bronze colour with a reddish tinge. Cook the other side for ⏱️ 1 minute until the target internal temperature is 55°C/130°F, or the fish flakes easily at the thickest point.
5
Rest on a rack for ⏱️ 2 minutes (to preserve crispy spice crust). Then serve! Recipes for pictured Jamaican sides coming on Tuesday - stay tuned!
