Spicy Paprika-Crusted Blackened Catfish with Fresh Green Beans
A vibrant, spice-infused catfish dish featuring a crispy paprika crust, perfectly seared to lock in juices. Served alongside tender, sautéed green beans tossed in a hint of olive oil and zesty lemon, this plate offers a refreshing mix of textures and a delightful burst of flavor.
INGREDIENTS
7 oz Catfish Fillet (approx. 198g)
1 cup Fresh Green Beans (125g)
1 tbsp Olive Oil (13.5g)
1 tsp Paprika
1 tsp Garlic Powder
1 tsp Onion Powder
0.5 tsp Cayenne Pepper
1 pinch Salt
1 tbsp Fresh Lemon Juice
PREPARATION
Pat the catfish fillet dry with paper towels. In a small bowl, combine paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, cayenne pepper, and a pinch of salt.
Season the catfish thoroughly on both sides with the spice blend, ensuring an even coating.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Add a drizzle (or half of the olive oil) to the pan to prevent sticking.
Once the pan is hot, add the spiced catfish fillet and cook for about 3-4 minutes per side, or until a dark crust forms and the fish is opaque and flakes easily.
Meanwhile, in another skillet, heat the remaining olive oil over medium heat. Add the fresh green beans and sauté for 4-5 minutes until they are crisp-tender, stirring occasionally.
Finish the green beans by drizzling with fresh lemon juice and tossing to combine.
Plate the blackened catfish alongside the sautéed green beans. Optionally, garnish with an extra squeeze of lemon juice before serving.
