Ingredients:
- 4 redfish fillets
- 1/2 cup butter
- 1/2 cup all-purpose flour

- 1 green bell pepper, chopped
- 2 celery stalks, chopped
- 4 garlic cloves, minced

To start, season the redfish fillets with Cajun seasoning and set aside. In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the flour and stir constantly until the mixture turns a dark brown color. This will take about 10-15 minutes.
Add the onion, bell pepper, celery, and garlic to the skillet and cook until the vegetables are tender. Add the chicken broth, Worcestershire sauce, hot sauce, salt, and black pepper. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat and let it simmer for 10 minutes.
While the sauce is simmering, heat a separate skillet over high heat. Add the redfish fillets and cook for 2-3 minutes on each side, until they are blackened and cooked through.
Add the cooked redfish fillets to the sauce and let them simmer for an additional 5 minutes. Stir in the chopped parsley.
To serve, spoon the blackened redfish etouffee over a bed of cooked white rice. Garnish with additional parsley, if desired.
This dish is a perfect combination of spicy and savory flavors that will leave you wanting more. The blackened redfish fillets add a smoky flavor to the dish, while the etouffee sauce is rich and flavorful. The dish is best served hot and is perfect for a cozy night in.
