No Smoke Almost Blackened Catfish
Ready In: 50 mins
Serves: 5
Ingredients
- 5 catfish fillets
- 4 tablespoons butter
- 1⁄4 cup lemon juice
- blackening seasoning
- garlic powder
- salt
Directions
- heavily season both sides of catfish with seasoning, I use paul prudome's blackened redfish magic.
- heat a heavy castiron skillet on a medium heat and add butter.
- once butter is melted and bubbly add 2 fillets at a time and cook 2-3 minutes per side just to seal and start a crust to form.
- place fillets on a foil lined cookie sheet drizzled with a smidge of olive oil to prevent bottom of fish from sticking. I lay mine "skin" side down.
- once all fillets are on the cookie sheet drizzle the now seasoned butter from the pan over the fish.
- spinkle the lemon juice all over the fish and bake in a 350 oven for 25-30 minutes checking every 10 minutes in the thickest part for doneness.
- serve immedately.
