Fish:

There are two methods to cooking that we use:

• Add 2-3 tablespoons of olive or other cooking oil to saute pan

• Add filets to oil

• Sprinkle HogWild Spice Blend on filets to taste

• Turn once after recommended time for the type of filet you are cooking

• Sprinkle HogWild Spice Blend on second side

• Cook to doneness desired, turning as recommended

• Sprinkle more HogWild on each turning if a stronger flavor is desired

• After removing from heat - sprinkle juice from fresh lemon over filets

OR (as seen at our tasters)

• Prepare butter mixture as below - add juice of half of a lemon

• Coat first side of filets with butter mixture - place in pan or on griddle

• Place filets on coated sides!

• Coat the other side of the filets while the first side is cooking

• Baste every minute or so while cooking, turning as recommended for the style of fish you are cooking - re whisk the butter mixture to keep spice suspended

• If you want a stronger flavor - sprinkle a little raw spice blend onto the fish

• Cook to desired doneness

• After removing from heat, serve - no lemon required due to it being in the mixture - serve with some of the butter sauce drizzled over the filets for effect
