Ok, not really, but the rub does have cocoa in it.
I thought I found the original recipe on a Scandinavian site but I cannot seem to find it again.
It appears many cultures have a cocoa rub for fish. This is my version.
Sprinkle the spices on white fish fillets and rub it in.
Then put it in a 425 oven for about 10-15 minutes-depending on the thickness of your fish.
As soon as it flakes with a fork, remove and serve immediately.
We ate it with baked butternut squash, rubbed with cinnamon, brown sugar and stuffed with cranberries. And some fresh bread.
On your silpat/cookie sheet, sprinkle the following spices on both sides of the fish then rub it all in. I am generous with the cocoa powder and then I add in decreasing amounts as the list goes down.
Unsweetened cocoa powder
allspice
cumin
paprika
dry mustard
salt
pepper
brown sugar
opt. cayenne pepper or chili powder
(you will know you used enough when you cannot see any white after you rub it in)
It is almost forms a crust and keeps the fish very moist on the inside.
Best served hot.
Experiment and see how strong you like it and what spices you like best.
