Ingredients
4 catfish filets
Sea Salt
2 Tbl butter
Instructions
- Heat a cast iron skillet over medium high heat.
- Season the catfish filets on both sides with a little sea salt and generously with Chackbay Blend. Drizzle Blood Orange Avocado Oil into the pan.
- Working with two filets at a time, sear the catfish filets, skin side down until deep golden brown. Move to a plate and sear the other two filets. Turn and reduce heat to low.
- Move the first two catfish filets back to the pan, seared side up alongside the other filets. Add in the butter and allow to melt. Baste the fish with the melted butter. Continue cooking the filets until firm to the touch and opaque white throughout, about 10 minutes.
- Serve the fish over cheese grits or as a topping for a salad.
