Ingredients:

Serving

1 cup white rice
2 cups water
1 tsp cajun seasoning
1/2 tsp hot pepper sauce
1 tsp ground thyme
1 tsp ground black pepper
1 tsp ground cayenne pepper
1 tsp salt
1/2 tsp garlic powder
1/2 tsp onion powder
1/2 tsp paprika
1/2 tsp dried dill weed
1/4 tsp lemon pepper
2 (8 oz) fillets catfish
1/2 cup butter, melted
1 tsp lemon juice , or to taste

Directions:

Bring the rice, water, Cajun seasoning, and hot pepper sauce to a boil in a saucepan. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until the rice is tender, and the liquid has been absorbed, 20 to 25 minutes.
While rice is cooking, mix thyme, black pepper, cayenne pepper, salt, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, dill weed, and lemon pepper in a bowl until well blended. Brush catfish fillets with butter and sprinkle with seasoning mixture other both sides.
Heat any remaining melted butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat; pan-fry seasoned catfish in butter until fish is easily flaked with a fork, 4 to 5 minutes per side.
Serve catfish over a plate of seasoned rice. Pour leftover butter from the skillet over fish and sprinkle with lemon juice.
