📖 Instructions

1. Alright, let's kick things off by prepping that beautiful cod. Gently pat the cod fillets dry with paper towels. This helps the Cajun spices adhere better and ensures a nice sear on the grill.
2. In a mixing bowl, whisk together the Cajun seasoning, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, cayenne pepper, dried thyme, and dried oregano. This is your flavor explosion waiting to happen!
3. Drizzle the olive oil over the cod fillets, ensuring they're lightly coated. This helps the spices stick and keeps the fish moist on the grill. Don't be shy!
4. Generously sprinkle the Cajun spice mixture over both sides of the cod fillets. Make sure every nook and cranny is covered in that spicy goodness. Really get in there!
5. Preheat your grill to medium-high heat, around 375-450°F (190-230°C). Clean the grill grates thoroughly and lightly oil them to prevent the fish from sticking. Trust me, you don't wanna lose any of that precious cod to the grill!
6. Carefully place the seasoned cod fillets on the hot grill grates. Leave some space between them for even cooking. You want each fillet to get that beautiful grilled char.
7. Grill the cod for about 4-6 minutes per side, depending on the thickness of the fillets. Keep a close eye on them to prevent overcooking. The fish should be opaque and flake easily with a fork when it's ready. Don't flip it too early!
8. While the cod is grilling, you can baste it with a little melted butter or more olive oil for extra richness and flavor. This is totally optional, but trust me, it takes it up a notch!
9. Once the cod is cooked through, carefully remove it from the grill using a spatula or tongs. Transfer the fillets to a serving platter and let them rest for a minute or two. This helps the juices redistribute, resulting in a more tender and flavorful fish.
10. Garnish the grilled cod with fresh parsley or a squeeze of lemon juice for a pop of color and brightness. Serve immediately and prepare to be blown away by the explosion of Cajun flavors! BAM!
