Catfish Salad In Avocado Recipe

Preparation Steps

1. 1

   Cook the Catfish

   In a skillet over medium heat, add 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Once hot, add the catfish fillets. Season with salt and black pepper. Cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side until the fish is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork. Once cooked, remove from heat and let cool.

2. 2

   Prepare the Vegetables

   While the catfish is cooling, chop the cherry tomatoes in half, finely dice the red onion, and chop the cilantro. Place them in a large mixing bowl.

3. 3

   Make the Dressing

   In a small bowl, whisk together the lime juice, the remaining tablespoon of olive oil, and a pinch of salt and black pepper. Adjust seasoning to taste.

4. 4

   Assemble the Salad

   Once the catfish has cooled, flake it into bite-sized pieces and add it to the bowl with the vegetables. Pour the dressing over the mixture and gently toss to combine all ingredients well.

5. 5

   Prepare the Avocados

   Cut the avocados in half and remove the pit. Using a spoon, scoop out some of the flesh to create a larger cavity for the salad. Save the scooped-out avocado flesh for another use or mash it and add to the salad if desired.

6. 6

   Serve

   Spoon the catfish salad mixture into the avocado halves. Serve immediately while the avocados are fresh.
