Blackened Wahoo is a delicious seafood dish that is not only tasty, but has a good amount of kick from the blackened seasoning! This recipe is amazing but it is also an easy recipe to make on the stovetop or using the side burner on your grill (it does tend to smoke up the kitchen). It’s a great recipe for a fun weekend night meal with friends and family or any time of the week!
