Crispy Cajun Blackened Catfish with Roasted Green Beans
Savor the bold flavors of Cajun-spiced, blackened catfish paired with tender roasted green beans. The delicate, crispy exterior of the catfish contrasts beautifully with the vibrant crunch of green beans, finished with a drizzle of olive oil and a squeeze of fresh lemon.
INGREDIENTS
7 oz Catfish Fillet (200g)
1 cup Fresh Green Beans (125g)
2 tsp Olive Oil
1 tsp Cajun Seasoning
1/2 tsp Paprika
Pinch of Salt
Pinch of Black Pepper
1 Lemon Wedge
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 425°F.
In a small bowl, combine the Cajun seasoning, paprika, salt, and pepper.
Pat the catfish fillet dry with a paper towel. Brush both sides lightly with 1 tsp olive oil.
Generously sprinkle the seasoning blend over both sides of the catfish to ensure a good coating.
Heat a non-stick skillet or cast iron pan over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the catfish and cook for about 3-4 minutes per side, or until the exterior is dark and crispy and the fish is cooked through.
While the catfish is cooking, toss the green beans in the remaining 1 tsp olive oil and a pinch of salt.
Spread the green beans on a baking sheet and roast in the preheated oven for about 10-12 minutes until tender and slightly charred.
Plate the catfish alongside the roasted green beans. Squeeze a fresh lemon wedge over the fish before serving for an extra burst of flavor.
