Crispy Cajun Blackened Catfish Fillets
Pan-seared catfish fillets coated in a bold, smoky Cajun spice blend served over a bed of light cauliflower rice and snappy green beans.
INGREDIENTS
8 oz Catfish fillets
1 tsp Smoked paprika
0.5 tsp Garlic powder
0.5 tsp Onion powder
0.25 tsp Dried thyme
0.25 tsp Dried oregano
0.13 tsp Cayenne pepper
0.25 tsp Sea salt
0.25 tsp Black pepper
2 tsp Avocado oil
1.5 cup Cauliflower rice
1 cup Green beans
1 tsp Lemon juice
PREPARATION
Pat the catfish fillets completely dry with paper towels to ensure a crispy crust.
In a small bowl, whisk together the smoked paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, thyme, oregano, cayenne, salt, and black pepper.
Press the spice mixture firmly onto both sides of the catfish fillets until evenly coated.
Heat the avocado oil in a large cast-iron or heavy-bottomed skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering.
Carefully place the fillets in the hot pan and sear for 3 to 4 minutes per side until the crust is blackened and the fish flakes easily.
While the fish cooks, steam the green beans and lightly sauté the cauliflower rice in a separate pan with a squeeze of lemon juice.
Plate the catfish over the cauliflower rice with the green beans on the side.
