This a modified quick and easy Recipe for Blackened Cajun Catfish from Erin Mitchell-Cridlin from Louisville, Kentucky. Ingredients:
4 (6 ounce) catfish fillets |
1/3 cup butter, melted |
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice |
1 tablespoon dried thyme |
1 teaspoon salt |
1 teaspoon cracked black pepper |
1 teaspoon paprika |
1 teaspoon garlic powder |
1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes |
1/3 cup dry white wine |
Directions:
1. Heat a large cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat for 10 minutes, or until hot.

3. Brush fillets on both sides with butter mixture and sprinkle evenly with seasoning mix. Place fillets, skin side up in pan cook on both sides until fish flakes easily with a fork, about 6 minutes total.
