Chef's Note
For the best blackened effect, make sure your pan is very hot before adding the fish. If you prefer a less spicy wrap, reduce the amount of Cajun seasoning and hot sauce. You can also prepare the remoulade sauce and slaw a day ahead to save time and allow the flavors to develop more fully.
