Cajun Blackened Catfish with Lemon Aioli
Pan-seared catfish fillets coated in a smoky, charred Cajun spice blend and served with a bright, zesty lemon aioli and crisp green beans.
INGREDIENTS
8 oz Catfish fillet
1 tbsp Ghee
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
1 tbsp Avocado oil mayonnaise
1 tsp Lemon juice
0.5 tsp Minced garlic
1.5 cup Fresh green beans
PREPARATION
In a small bowl, combine the smoked paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, thyme, oregano, cayenne, sea salt, and black pepper.
Pat the catfish fillets completely dry with a paper towel and coat both sides generously with the spice mixture, pressing it into the flesh.
Heat the ghee in a cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat until it is shimmering and very hot.
Place the catfish in the skillet and sear for 3 to 4 minutes per side until a dark, blackened crust forms and the fish flakes easily with a fork.
While the fish cooks, whisk together the avocado oil mayonnaise, lemon juice, and minced garlic in a small ramekin to create the aioli.
Steam the green beans for 5 to 6 minutes until they are tender-crisp and vibrant green.
Plate the blackened catfish immediately, topped with a dollop of lemon aioli, and serve alongside the steamed green beans.
