Crispy Cajun Blackened Catfish with Roasted Green Beans
Enjoy a robustly spiced catfish fillet perfectly blackened with a Cajun rub, accompanied by tender roasted green beans. This dish marries a crispy exterior with a moist, flaky interior and vibrant roasted vegetables, delivering a satisfying balance of savory heat and fresh, bright flavors.
INGREDIENTS
6 oz Catfish Fillet
½ tbsp Olive Oil (for fish)
½ tsp Cajun Spice Mix
Salt and Black Pepper to taste
1 Lemon Wedge
1 cup Green Beans
1 tbsp Olive Oil (for green beans)
½ tsp Garlic Powder
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 425°F for the green beans. Rinse and pat dry the green beans, then toss them in 1 tablespoon olive oil, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
Arrange the seasoned green beans on a baking sheet and roast them for 12-15 minutes until tender and slightly crispy.
Meanwhile, pat the catfish fillet dry and brush both sides lightly with ½ tablespoon olive oil. Sprinkle Cajun spice mix evenly over both sides along with a pinch of salt and pepper.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, place the seasoned catfish fillet in the pan and cook for approximately 3-4 minutes per side until a dark, crispy crust forms and the fish flakes easily.
Plate the catfish alongside the roasted green beans and garnish with a lemon wedge. Squeeze fresh lemon juice over the fish just before serving.
