Cajun Blackened Catfish

1. 1

   Mix together spices and herbs in a shallow dish.

2. 2

   Rinse catfish filets under cold water, then pat dry with paper towels.

3. 3

   Place each filet in the seasoning dish and use your fingers to coat thoroughly with the spice mixture.

4. 4

   Heat the olive oil in a large, heavy skillet (cast-iron works best) over medium-high heat.

5. 5

   Open a window, because you may get a little smoke.

6. 6

   This means the blackening process is working.

7. 7

   Fry the filets on each side for 3-4 minutes, then remove from pan and serve immediately with your favorite Southern sides and lemon wedges or rounds.
