In a small bowl, evenly combine smoked paprika, dried onion flakes, minced garlic, salt, ground black pepper, dried thyme, dried oregano, and cayenne pepper to create your blackened seasoning.

Using a paper towel, ensure the cod fillets are thoroughly dry.

Gently brush each side of the fillets with 1 tablespoon of olive oil.

Next, evenly coat both sides of the cod fillets with the blackened seasoning, ensuring to shake off any excess spices.

Lightly drizzle honey over the cod fillets.

Heat the remaining 1 tablespoon of oil in a large heavy-bottomed or cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat.

Place the seasoned cod fillets in the skillet, sear for 3-5 minutes, or until the spices begin to form a dark crust.

Flip the fillets and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, or until the cod is thoroughly cooked and easily flakes with a fork.

Before serving, sprinkle freshly squeezed lemon juice over the cooked fillets. Garnish with chopped parsley for extra freshness.
