INGREDIENTS
8 oz Catfish Fillet (227g)
1 cup Asparagus (134g)
1 tsp Olive Oil (5g)
1 tsp Cajun Seasoning (2g)
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
Rinse the catfish fillet and pat dry with paper towels.
Season the catfish evenly with Cajun seasoning, salt, and pepper on both sides.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat and lightly coat with a small amount of olive oil.
Sear the catfish for 2-3 minutes on each side until a flavorful, blackened crust forms.
Meanwhile, trim the woody ends off the asparagus. Toss the asparagus with olive oil, salt, and pepper on a baking sheet.
Roast the asparagus in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes until tender.
Plate the blackened catfish beside the roasted asparagus and finish with a squeeze of fresh lemon if desired.
