Ingredients:

Serving

4 (4 to 6-oz) pompano fillets, scaled and trimmed
1/4 cup mayonnaise
salt and freshly ground black pepper
essence , recipe follows
salsa , recipe follows
2 1/2 tbsp paprika
2 tbsp salt
2 tbsp garlic powder
1 tbsp black pepper
1 tbsp onion powder
1 tbsp cayenne pepper
1 tbsp dried leaf oregano
1 tbsp dried thyme
1/2 cup seeded and chopped plum tomatoes
1 mango, peeled, seeded, and diced
1/4 cup peeled, seeded, and diced cucumber
1/2 jalapeno, seeded and finely diced
1/2 red onion, diced
1 tbsp pureed chipotle in adobo
1 lime, juiced
1 tbsp chopped cilantro

Directions:

Preheat the grill to medium-high.
Using a pastry brush or rubber spatula, lightly coat both sides of each fillet with a small amount of mayonnaise. Season the fillets on both sides with salt, pepper, and Essence to taste.
When the grill is hot, place the fillets on the grill and grill for 2 to 3 minutes, or until the flesh begins to turn opaque. (This will depend on the size of the fillets as well as on the type of fish being cooked.) Turn the fillets and grill on the second side until the fish is cooked through and flakes easily. Transfer to serving plates and enjoy immediately. Serve with salsa.
Essence (Emeril's Creole Seasoning):
Combine all ingredients thoroughly and store in an airtight jar or container.
Yield: about 2/3 cup
