INGREDIENTS
7 oz Catfish Fillet
1 medium Red Bell Pepper
1 small Zucchini
1/4 medium Red Onion
1 tsp Olive Oil
1 tsp Cajun Seasoning
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 425°F.
Prepare the vegetables: Slice the red bell pepper into strips, cut the zucchini into rounds, and thinly slice the red onion.
Toss the vegetables with olive oil, salt, and a pinch of black pepper, and spread them out on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Roast the vegetables in the preheated oven for about 20-25 minutes, stirring halfway through to ensure even cooking.
While the vegetables roast, pat the catfish fillet dry with a paper towel.
Season both sides of the catfish generously with Cajun seasoning.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat and add a light spray of cooking oil if desired.
Place the seasoned catfish in the skillet and cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side until the fish is blackened and crispy, and flakes easily with a fork.
Plate the blackened catfish alongside the roasted vegetables and serve immediately.
