Blackened Fish Burger Ingredients
- 4-6 oz sea bass filet or other firm fish
- 1/2 – 3/4 cup chopped purple cabbage
- 1 Tablespoon grapeseed oil and extra virgin olive oil will also work

Direction for Blackened Fish Burger
- Preheat oven to 450 – ensure the rack is in the middle of the range.
- Mix Rub ingredients.
- Take your sea bass; pat dry with a paper towel, and leave the skin on.
- Sprinkle a generous amount (about a teaspoon or two) of the rub on the top of the filet (you will not use the whole thing – save the remainder for another use).
- Add purple cabbage to a small mixing bowl, grapeseed oil, and kosher salt.
- Mix well. Mix your Sriracha Mayo ingredients, experimenting (if you want) until you get your perfect flavor and spiciness.
- Bake your fish for 4-6 minutes per 1/2 inch thickness, and the cabbage requires about 4-6 minutes, so if you have a small fish, put the cabbage in right away. If your fish is thicker, wait until there are 4-6 minutes left, and add purple cabbage.
- Place fish, skin-side down, on a foil-lined baking sheet; ensure it is off to one side, as you will place the cabbage on the same sheet immediately or after a few minutes.
- Butter your brioche bun and carefully place it on the bottom oven rack, butter side down, for approximately 2-3 minutes.
- Remove fish, cabbage, and bun from the oven.
- Take the bottom of the bun and spread as much sriracha mayo as you desire.
- Add purple cabbage.
- Take a spatula, lift the fish fillet off its skin, which should stick to the foil, and place it on top of the cabbage.
- Add arugula on top and top with a bun.
- Serve immediately.
