Blackened Catfish with Braised Collard Greens
Pan-seared catfish fillets coated in a smoky spice rub served with tender collard greens simmered in a savory, aromatic broth.
INGREDIENTS
6 oz Catfish fillets
2 oz Smoked turkey breast
2 cup Collard greens
1 tbsp Extra virgin olive oil
0.25 cup Yellow onion
1 clove Garlic
0.5 cup Chicken bone broth
1 tsp Apple cider vinegar
1 tsp Smoked paprika
0.5 tsp Onion powder
0.5 tsp Garlic powder
0.5 tsp Dried thyme
0.25 tsp Cayenne pepper
0.25 tsp Sea salt
0.25 tsp Black pepper
PREPARATION
In a large pot, sauté the diced yellow onion and minced garlic with a splash of bone broth until softened and fragrant.
Add the chopped smoked turkey breast and collard greens to the pot, followed by the remaining bone broth and apple cider vinegar.
Cover and simmer the greens on medium-low heat for 20 minutes until they are tender and the liquid has mostly reduced.
In a small bowl, combine the smoked paprika, onion powder, garlic powder, dried thyme, cayenne, sea salt, and black pepper to create the blackening seasoning.
Pat the catfish fillets completely dry with a paper towel and coat both sides generously with the prepared spice blend.
Heat the extra virgin olive oil in a cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat until it begins to shimmer.
Carefully place the catfish in the skillet and sear for 3 to 4 minutes per side until a dark crust forms and the fish flakes easily with a fork.
Serve the blackened catfish immediately alongside the braised collard greens for a balanced, soul-food inspired meal.
