Blackened Catfish and Spicy Rice
Quick and easy blackened catfish recipe. Serve this over a Cajun flavored spicy white rice. Although the rice is optional, the slightly spicy Cajun flavor of the rice brings out the taste of the catfish.
Ingredients
1 cup China Doll Long Grain White Rice
2 cups water
1 teaspoon Cajun seasoning
½ teaspoon hot pepper sauce
1 teaspoon ground thyme
1 teaspoon ground black pepper
1 teaspoon ground cayenne pepper
1 teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon garlic powder
½ teaspoon onion powder
½ teaspoon paprika
½ teaspoon dried dill w**d
¼ teaspoon lemon pepper
2 (8 ounce) fillets catfish
½ cup butter, melted
1 teaspoon lemon juice, or to taste
Directions
Step 1
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.
Step 2
While rice is cooking, mix thyme, black pepper, cayenne pepper, salt, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, dill w**d, and lemon pepper in a bowl until well blended. Brush catfish fillets with butter and sprinkle with seasoning mixture other both sides.
Step 3
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.
Step 4
Serve catfish over a plate of seasoned rice. Pour leftover butter from the skillet over fish and sprinkle with lemon juice.
