Crispy Cajun Blackened Catfish with Roasted Asparagus
Enjoy a flavorful twist on traditional catfish with a crispy, blackened crust infused with Cajun spices. This dish pairs perfectly with roasted asparagus, lightly tossed in olive oil, offering a satisfying meal that balances protein, healthy fats, and vibrant flavors.
INGREDIENTS
6 oz Catfish Fillet
1 cup Asparagus
1 tbsp Olive Oil
1 tsp Cajun Seasoning
Salt and Black Pepper to taste
1 Lemon Wedge
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 425°F. Toss the asparagus with half of the olive oil, salt, and pepper, then spread on a baking sheet.
Roast the asparagus in the oven for about 12-15 minutes until tender and slightly crispy.
While the asparagus roasts, pat the catfish fillet dry with a paper towel. Season both sides generously with Cajun seasoning, salt, and pepper.
Heat the remaining olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering.
Place the catfish fillet in the skillet and cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until the fish is opaque and develops a crispy, blackened crust.
Plate the blackened catfish alongside the roasted asparagus. Squeeze a lemon wedge over the top for added brightness before serving.
