Serves 4
Pull out a few spices from the pantry for this easy, just a bit fiery, family meal.
2 tsp (10 mL) each paprika, dried oregano and thyme leaves
1/2 tsp (2 mL) each onion and garlic powder and salt
1/4 tsp (1 mL) black pepper
Pinch cayenne pepper
4Â 6-to-8 oz (180 to 250 g) U.S. Farm-Raised Catfish fillets
2 tsp (10 mL) olive oil
1 tsp (5 mL) butter
4 lemon wedges
In a small bowl, stir spices together until well mixed. Sprinkle both sides of fish with spice mixture, patting into fillets. There may be a bit of spice mixture left over.
Heat oil with butter, in a large non-stick frying pan, over medium-high heat. When it begins to bubble, add fillets. Cook, until fish flakes, about 4 minutes a side.
Serve each fillet with a wedge of lemon for squeezing over top.
Delicious with a mixture of green and yellow beans and roasted potatoes or rice.
