Blackened Walleye Pan-Seared with El Capitan Chili Citrus Taco Rub
Blackened Walleye is a classic way to prepare freshwater fish when you want bold flavor and a crisp exterior without overcomplicating the process. This walleye recipe uses high heat and a well-seasoned cast iron skillet to create a dark, flavorful crust while keeping the inside tender and flaky. When done properly, blackened fish develops a deep color and slight char that enhances the natural sweetness of the fillet.
This Blackened Walleye recipe highlights the bright heat and citrus notes of PS Seasoning El Capitan Chili Citrus Taco Rub, a balanced chili citrus seasoning designed to bring layered flavor to seafood. While commonly used as a fish taco seasoning, El Capitan works equally well in a straightforward pan-seared fish preparation. The combination of chili, citrus, and savory spice creates a crispy crust that locks in moisture and delivers a well-rounded seafood dinner.
