Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the catfish

    Rinse the catfish fillets under cold water and pat them dry with paper towels. Ensure there are no scales or bones remaining.

  2. 2

    Marinate

    In a bowl, mix the olive oil and lemon juice. Add the catfish fillets to this mixture, making sure they are well-coated. Let it marinate for at least 30 minutes.

Cooking

  1. 3

    Mix seasonings

    In a small bowl, combine the garlic powder, paprika, salt, black pepper, and cayenne pepper.

  2. 4

    Season the fillets

    After marinating, sprinkle the seasoning mixture evenly over the catfish fillets on both sides.

  3. 5

    Cook the catfish

    Heat a skillet over medium heat. Add a little olive oil if needed. Place the seasoned catfish fillets in the skillet and cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until the fish flakes easily with a fork.

Serving

  1. 6

    Plate the dish

    Once cooked, transfer the catfish fillets to a serving plate. Garnish with chopped fresh parsley and serve with lemon wedges on the side.
