INGREDIENTS
7 oz Catfish Fillet
1 cup Asparagus
2 tsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1 tsp Blackened Seasoning
1 Lemon Wedge
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Pat the catfish fillet dry with a paper towel. Generously rub the fillet on both sides with the blackened seasoning.
Place the seasoned fillet in a hot, lightly oiled skillet over medium-high heat and sear each side for about 2 minutes to lock in the flavors.
While the fish sears, trim the woody ends off the asparagus and toss them with 1 tsp of olive oil, salt, and pepper.
Transfer the asparagus to the prepared baking sheet and roast in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes until tender and crispy.
If needed, finish cooking the catfish in the oven for an additional 5 minutes to ensure it's cooked through.
Plate the catfish alongside the roasted asparagus, drizzle the remaining olive oil over the asparagus, and squeeze a lemon wedge over the dish before serving.
