Description
(from Karen Adler and Judith Fertig's Fish & Shellfish,
Grilled & Smoked, The Harvard Common Press, 2002)
Ingredients
- 1/3 cup instant minced onions
- 1/3 cup dill weed
- 2 tablespoons dried tarragon
- 2 tablespoons dried oregano
- 1 tablespoon celery seed
- 1 tablespoon lemon pepper
- 1 tablespoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon red pepper flakes
- 4 U.S. Farm-Raised Catfish fillets (4 to 6 ounces each)
- Olive oil spray
Preparation
Prep time: 5 minutes
Cook time: 8 minutes
1. Mix spices in a glass jar with tight-fitting lid. Store
the blend in a dark cupboard, away from heat; it will keep
for two to three months.
2. To cook catfish fillets, begin by sprinkling 1/2 to 1
teaspoon rub on a lightly oiled fillet. Grill or broil over
high heat for 3 1/2 to 4 minutes per side or until the fish
begins to flake when tested with a fork in the thickest
part.
