Cajun Blackened Catfish with Lemon Aioli
Pan-seared catfish fillets coated in a zesty blackening spice blend, drizzled with a velvety lemon aioli and served with crisp green beans.
INGREDIENTS
8 oz catfish fillets
1 tsp smoked paprika
0.5 tsp onion powder
0.5 tsp garlic powder
0.25 tsp cayenne pepper
0.25 tsp dried oregano
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
1 tsp avocado oil
1 tbsp avocado oil mayonnaise
1 tsp fresh lemon juice
0.5 tsp minced garlic
1.5 cups fresh green beans
PREPARATION
In a small bowl, combine the smoked paprika, onion powder, garlic powder, cayenne pepper, dried oregano, sea salt, and black pepper to create the blackening spice.
Pat the catfish fillets dry with paper towels and coat both sides evenly with the spice mixture.
In another small bowl, whisk together the avocado oil mayonnaise, fresh lemon juice, and minced garlic to make the aioli; set aside.
Steam the fresh green beans for 5-6 minutes until tender-crisp and bright green.
Heat the avocado oil in a large cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering.
Place the catfish fillets in the skillet and sear for 3-4 minutes per side until the crust is dark and the fish flakes easily with a fork.
Plate the blackened catfish alongside the steamed green beans and drizzle the fish with the lemon aioli before serving.
