Cajun Pecan-Crusted Catfish Tutorial

This is a quick way to jazz up a white-fleshed fish. I use catfish but this would work with Tilapia, too.

Cajun Pecan-Crusted Catfish

Ingredients

2 Tbs olive oil

2 tsp lemon juice

1 tsp Cajun seasoning

1/2 tsp dried thyme

1/3 cup finely chopped pecans

2 Tbs grated Parmesan cheese

1 Tbs dry bread crumbs

1 Tbs dried parsley flakes

4 catfish filets

Step 1

Preheat oven to 425 degrees. In a small bowl, combine the oil, lemon juice, Cajun seasoning, and thyme.

Step 2

In another bowl, combine the pecans, Parmesan cheese, bread crumbs, parsley flakes, and 1 Tbs of the oil mixture.

Step 3

Place the fish on a greased baking sheet and brush with oil mixture. Then spread the pecan mixture evenly over the filets.

Step 4

Bake at 425 degrees for 10-15 minutes until the fish flakes easily with a fork.
