Main Ingredients

Optional Marinade Ingredients

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Marinade

    In a bowl, whisk together olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, paprika, salt, black pepper, and optional cayenne pepper and honey if using. Set aside.

  2. 2

    Marinate the Catfish

    Place the catfish fillets in a shallow dish and pour the marinade over them. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to infuse.

Grilling

  1. 3

    Preheat the Grill

    Preheat your grill to medium-high heat (about 375-450°F or 190-232°C).

  2. 4

    Grill the Catfish

    Remove catfish from marinade and discard leftover marinade. Place the fillets on the preheated grill. Grill for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until the fish is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.

  3. 5

    Garnish and Serve

    Once cooked, remove catfish from the grill, and sprinkle with chopped fresh parsley before serving. Enjoy!
