Blackened Fish. The seasoning is liberally rubbed over fish or chicken and then the fish or chicken is charred on both sides in a heavy iron skillet over medium-high heat. I've included some basic cooking instructions below.
To avoid, keep the meat moist, either with a marinade or with careful cooking over a less high heat for a shorter time. Blackened foods are safe because they are protected by the butter and rubs. To prevent meat from shrinking up into little wads when it cooks, cut it against the grain. Look for the longest fibers in the meat (they will run the length of the meat) and cut perpendicular to them. This will also produce a cut that's tender. Brining makes meat juicier. Unbrined meat loses 30 percent of its moisture, while brined meat loses only 15 percent.
