    kosmo's Note:

    Excellent balance of flavors and super easy. Great flavor without the smoke from high heat blackening. No need to heat a cast iron skillet to surface temps of the sun for this one. You can use your non stick pan on medium. Not a true blacken but exceptional flavor just the same. I recommend using Emerils Essence for the creole seasoning. Got this little treasure from a package insert of tilapia fillets.
