INGREDIENTS
7 ounces Catfish Fillet
1 cup Asparagus
1 teaspoon Olive Oil
1 teaspoon Unsalted Butter
1 teaspoon Cajun Seasoning
1 Lemon wedge
PREPARATION
Pat the catfish fillet dry with a paper towel. Sprinkle Cajun seasoning evenly over both sides of the fillet.
Heat the unsalted butter in a nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Once the butter is melted and slightly sizzling, add the seasoned catfish fillet.
Sear the fillet for about 3-4 minutes on each side until a crispy, blackened crust forms and the fish is cooked through.
Preheat your oven to 400°F. In a bowl, toss the asparagus with olive oil and a pinch of salt if desired.
Spread the asparagus on a baking sheet in a single layer and roast in the oven for about 10 minutes until tender and lightly charred.
Plate the catfish alongside the roasted asparagus. Finish with a squeeze of fresh lemon over the catfish for an extra burst of flavor.
Serve immediately and enjoy a flavorful, protein-packed meal.
