Main Ingredients

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Catfish

    Rinse the catfish fillets under cold water and pat them dry with paper towels. Place them in a shallow dish.

  2. 2

    Season the Fillets

    Drizzle the olive oil over the catfish fillets. Sprinkle salt and black pepper evenly on both sides of the fillets.

  3. 3

    Prepare Garlic Butter

    Melt the stick of unsalted butter in a small saucepan over low heat. Add minced garlic (finely chop the garlic cloves) and cook until fragrant, about 2 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in chopped fresh parsley.

Cooking

  1. 4

    Preheat the Grill

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

  2. 5

    Charbroil the Catfish

    Place the seasoned catfish fillets on the grill. Cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until the fish flakes easily with a fork and has nice grill marks.

  3. 6

    Serve with Garlic Butter

    Once cooked, remove the fillets from the grill and drizzle with the prepared garlic butter. Squeeze fresh lemon juice over the top before serving.
