INGREDIENTS
6 oz Catfish Fillet
1/2 tbsp Olive Oil
1 tsp Cajun Seasoning
Pinch Salt
Pinch Black Pepper
1 tsp Garlic Powder
1 cup Green Beans
1 Lemon Wedge
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Toss the green beans with a drizzle of olive oil, a pinch of salt, and pepper, then spread them out on a baking sheet.
Roast the green beans in the oven for about 15-20 minutes until tender and slightly charred, stirring halfway through.
Meanwhile, pat the catfish fillet dry with paper towels. Brush both sides lightly with a small amount of olive oil.
Mix the Cajun seasoning, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper together in a small bowl. Rub the spice blend thoroughly over both sides of the catfish.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, place the catfish fillet in the skillet and sear for about 3-4 minutes on each side until a dark, flavorful crust forms and the fish is cooked through.
Plate the seared catfish alongside the roasted green beans and garnish with a lemon wedge. Squeeze fresh lemon juice over the fish just before serving for an extra burst of flavor.
