Combine all Blackening Seasoning ingredients in a small bowl.
Pat the Redfish fillets dry with paper towels.
Brush the Redfish fillets with melted Butter.
Generously coat both sides of the Redfish fillets with the Blackening Seasoning.
Heat Olive oil in a large cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat until very hot.
Carefully place the Redfish fillets in the hot skillet and cook for 3-4 minutes per side, or until blackened and cooked through. The fish should flake easily with a fork.
