Catfish Recipe

Directions

1. 1

   Prepare the Marinade

   In a mixing bowl, combine soy sauce, lime juice, minced ginger, minced garlic, salt, and black pepper. Whisk well to combine.

2. 2

   Marinate the Catfish

   Place the catfish fillets in a shallow dish. Pour the marinade over the fillets, ensuring they are well-coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.

3. 3

   Prepare the Lemongrass

   While the fish is marinating, prepare the lemongrass. Trim the ends and remove the tough outer layers. Finely chop the tender part of the stalk.

4. 4

   Cook the Catfish

   Heat vegetable oil in a skillet over medium heat. Remove the catfish from the marinade and add to the skillet. Cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side or until the fish is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.

5. 5

   Add Lemongrass

   In the last minute of cooking, sprinkle the chopped lemongrass over the catfish to infuse its flavor. Stir gently to incorporate.

6. 6

   Garnish and Serve

   Transfer the catfish to a serving platter. Garnish with fresh cilantro. Serve immediately with your choice of sides.
