Barlow's Blackened Catfish
Ingredients
- 2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
- 2 teaspoon lemon pepper
- 2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 2 teaspoon salt
- 2 teaspoon pepper
- 1 pound catfish fillets
- 2 tablespoon butter
- 1 cup Italian-style salad dressing
Instructions
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly grease a medium baking dish. In a shallow, medium bowl, mix cayenne pepper, lemon pepper, garlic powder, salt and pepper. Brush both sides of catfish fillets with butter. Coat fillets with equal amounts of the cayenne pepper mixture. In a medium saucepan over medium high heat, cook fillets approximately 2 minutes on each side, until slightly blackened. Arrange blackened fillets in a single layer in the prepared baking dish, and coat with Italian-style salad dressing. Bake 30 to 35 minutes in the preheated oven, until fish is easily flaked with a fork.
