For best results, use high-quality, fresh sea bass fillets. Adjust the amount of cayenne pepper to control the level of spiciness. Ensure the grill is hot before placing the fish on it to achieve a good sear. Avoid overcooking the sea bass, as it can become dry. The fish is done when it flakes easily with a fork. Serve immediately for the best flavor and texture.

Follow The Directions
01
StepPrepare the Grill: Preheat an outdoor grill to medium heat (about 350-400°F or 175°C-200°C) and lightly oil the grate to prevent sticking. (5 minutes)
02
StepPrepare the Blackening Spice: In a small bowl, combine the smoked paprika, garlic salt, dried thyme, black pepper, and cayenne pepper. Mix well to ensure all spices are evenly distributed. (2 minutes)
03
StepButter and Season the Sea Bass: Place the melted butter in a shallow dish. Dip each sea bass fillet into the melted butter, coating both sides thoroughly. Then, generously sprinkle both sides of each fillet with the blackening spice mixture, pressing gently to adhere. (5 minutes)
04
StepGrill the Sea Bass: Place the buttered and seasoned sea bass fillets on the preheated grill. Cover the grill and cook for 3 to 4 minutes. Carefully flip the fillets using a fish spatula and continue grilling until the fish is blackened, cooked through, and flakes easily with a fork, about 3 to 4 minutes more. (8 minutes)
05
StepServe: Remove the sea bass from the grill. Serve immediately with grilled lemon halves for squeezing and garnish with fresh dill sprigs. (2 minutes)
