I have always been a fan of catfish. We lived in Baton Rouge, LA several years ago and I became a fan of blackened catfish. This is a wonderful recipe that is quick to fix.

The lemon butter sauce is the perfect complement to the blackened catfish. It's tangy and creamy, and it really brings out the flavor of the fish.

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover catfish. I made it the day after a fish fry and it was just as good as the fresh catfish.

I've made this recipe several times and it always turns out great. The catfish is crispy on the outside and flaky on the inside. The lemon butter sauce is also delicious.

This blackened catfish recipe is an absolute keeper! The flavors are bold and the fish is cooked to perfection. I served it with a side of remoulade sauce and it was a hit with my family.
