INGREDIENTS
6 oz Catfish Fillet
1 cup Asparagus
1 tsp Olive Oil
1 tsp Cajun Seasoning
1 Lemon Wedge
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 425°F.
Pat the catfish fillet dry with a paper towel and season both sides generously with Cajun seasoning, salt, and pepper.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the catfish fillet and cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side until a crispy crust forms and the fish is nearly cooked through.
While the fish is cooking, trim the tough ends from the asparagus. Toss asparagus with olive oil, salt, and pepper on a baking sheet.
Roast the asparagus in the preheated oven for about 10-12 minutes until tender and slightly crisp.
Finish cooking the catfish in the skillet if needed until it reaches your desired doneness.
Plate the catfish fillet with roasted asparagus on the side and garnish with a squeeze of fresh lemon juice.
