Seafood, either fresh or frozen, holds a special place in my heart. Part of the reason is that it is easy to cook. Almost every seafood recipe I have come across is low effort, no-hassle, and diet-friendly. This is another reason I absolutely love seafood; it is full of healthy vitamins and fats, and is my go-to choice when I am actively trying to cut back on meat. If you love seafood and are in the same situation as I am, try these 10 dishes where seafood steals the entire show.

Cajun Blackened Fish

Contrary to the name, blackened fish is not actually charred – or black. The dark color is due to fish coated in Cajun seasoning and pan-fried to a toasty texture without actually burning it. This recipe gives a traditional Cajun flavor to the fish, which goes surprisingly well together. Full Recipe: Easy Cajun Blackened Fish Recipe
