[net.cooks] "Blackened" fish

I recently ate fish at a restaurant in Short Hills, NJ, which
was prepared by a process called "blackening".  This consisted
of coating the fish with a mixture of black pepper, cayenne
pepper, and other spices.  The result was delicious, very
spicy (hot), but surprisingly without destroying the subtle
flavor of the fish.  This is apparently a Cajun style of
cooking.  If anyone knows the secret of preparing "blackened"
fish, I would appreciate mail or a response to the net.
