Crispy Cajun Blackened Catfish with Roasted Green Beans
Savor the bold flavors of this crisp, Cajun-spiced catfish paired with vibrant, roasted green beans. The catfish is lightly blackened to perfection while the green beans are roasted until tender with a drizzle of olive oil, creating an enticing meal with a delightful balance of spice and crunch.
INGREDIENTS
7 ounces Catfish Fillet
1 cup Green Beans
1 tablespoon Olive Oil
1 teaspoon Cajun Seasoning
1 tablespoon Lemon Juice
Salt and Black Pepper (to taste)
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 425°F.
Rinse and pat dry the catfish fillet with paper towels. Drizzle a small amount of olive oil over the fillet and coat evenly.
Season both sides of the catfish generously with Cajun seasoning, salt, and black pepper.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the catfish fillet and sear for about 2 minutes on each side to create a crispy, blackened exterior.
While the fish sears, toss the green beans in the remaining olive oil, lemon juice, a pinch of salt, and black pepper. Spread them out on a baking sheet.
Roast the green beans in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, until tender and slightly charred at the edges.
Once the fish is seared, transfer it to the oven (or finish on the stovetop if preferred) and cook for an additional 4-6 minutes until cooked through.
Plate the catfish alongside the roasted green beans, and serve immediately with an extra squeeze of lemon if desired.
