1 1/2 teaspoon of Ground White Pepper
1 tablespoon of Salt
2 teaspoons of Onion Powder
2 teaspoons of Garlic Powder
1 teaspoon of dried Thyme
1 teaspoon of dried Oregano
1 cup of Ahuacatlan Avocado Oil

DIRECTIONS:

1.  In a small bowl mix together all the  dry spices to make the cajun rub.

2.  Heat a large cast iron skillet over high heat for 10 minutes, or until extremely hot

3.  Dip fish into Ahuacatlan Avocado Oil, and sprinkle each fillet generously with the cajun rub.  Place the fish fillets in the hot skillet. Pour 1 tablespoon of Ahuacatlan Avocado Oil over each fillet.  Cook until the underside of each fillet turns black, 3 to 5 minutes.  Turn fish over.  Pour another 1 tablespoon of Ahuacatlan Avocado Oil over the fish, and cook for another 2 minutes or until the fish flakes easily with a fork.
