Steps
- 1Pat seafood dry and season it just before cooking.
- 2Preheat the pan, grill, or oven so the seafood cooks cleanly.
- 3Cook gently until the center is just done and still moist.
- 4Rest briefly while you finish the sauce, rice, or vegetables.
- 5Finish with citrus and herbs right before serving.
Grit & Soul tip
Seafood punishes overcooking fast. Pull it when it is just done and let the finish carry the flavor.

18m agoThis is the kind of idea I would save for a cold Sunday. The cast iron move feels exactly right.
Grit & Soul know-how
Let the pan work
Why it works
Cast iron likes a real preheat. Once it is ready, it holds heat long enough to build the browned edges people came for.
Watch for
Do not crowd the pan. Give each piece contact with the surface, then let it release when the crust is ready.
Make it yours
Use the same pan for the finish: butter, garlic, herbs, sauce, or a quick pan gravy.
