In a small bowl, combine paprika, cayenne pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, thyme, oregano, black pepper, and salt. Mix well.

Pat the fish fillets dry with paper towels. Rub the spice mix generously on both sides of each fillet.

Heat the vegetable oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the seasoned fish fillets.

Cook for about 3-5 minutes on each side, or until the fish is cooked through and has a blackened crust.

Remove the fish from the skillet and let it rest for a minute before serving. Enjoy with sides of your choice.
