Well, thinking about cooking some fish on a cedar plank, and topping it with Etoufee'. The only problem is that i never cooked either before. What's a good fish for this. Anybody know a good Etouffee' recipe?

I would do one or the other. If you're going to go through the effort to cook fish on a cedar plank, I wouldn't drown it in etouffee. You'll drown the flavor that you work to get with a cedar plank.

This is acctualy a very good dish IMO. Do a pan fried catfish or tilapia fillet, use a seasoned white and yellow corn meal breading and pan fry. You can get away with a very simple box/pack crawfish or shirmp etoufee' for this dish. I make it quite often and it is a hit.

As stated previously, I would do them separately.

I do cedar plank fish all the time...make sure you soak the boards for 30-90 minutes prior to placing them on the grill. I found that drum and redfish absorb the flavor the best...certainly pompano if you can find it in BR.

I did a Mahi topped w/ crawfish etoufee recently and it was great. If you can make a roux than the rest is pretty easy....and FWIW, I think making a roux is pretty simple.
