Crispy Blackened Catfish with Lemon
Savor the delightful combination of perfectly blackened catfish fillet with a crispy exterior and tender interior, finished with a bright squeeze of fresh lemon. Paired with a side of roasted sweet potato, this dish offers a harmonious balance of zest, spice, and wholesome comfort.
INGREDIENTS
6 oz Catfish Fillet
1 tsp Olive Oil
1 serving Blackening Spice Mix
1 Lemon Wedge
1 small Sweet Potato (approx. 130g)
PREPARATION
Pat the catfish fillet dry with a paper towel and lightly brush both sides with olive oil.
Generously sprinkle the blackening spice mix on both sides of the catfish, pressing the seasoning to adhere.
Preheat a non-stick skillet or cast iron pan over medium-high heat. Once hot, carefully place the seasoned catfish in the pan.
Cook the catfish for 3-4 minutes on each side until a crispy, dark crust forms and the fish flakes easily with a fork.
While the fish is cooking, preheat your oven to 400°F and roast the sweet potato. Pierce it a few times with a fork, then bake directly on the oven rack for about 25-30 minutes or until tender.
Remove the catfish from the pan and transfer to a plate. Squeeze a lemon wedge over the catfish for a burst of fresh flavor.
Slice the roasted sweet potato and serve alongside the blackened catfish. Enjoy your meal!
