How To Make catfish d'arbonne

  • 1
    Blackened Catfish: Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Lightly grease a medium baking dish.
  • 2
    In a shallow, medium bowl, mix cayenne pepper, lemon pepper, garlic powder, salt and pepper.
  • 3
    Brush both sides of catfish fillets with butter. Rub fillets with the cayenne pepper mixture on both sides.
  • 4
    Heat a large heavy skillet over medium-high heat until really hot. Add fillets, and fry approximately 2 minutes on each side until slightly blackened.
  • 5
    Arrange blackened fillets in a single layer in the prepared baking dish, and coat with Italian-style salad dressing. Bake 30 - 35 minutes in the preheated oven, until fish is easily flaked with a fork.
  • 6
    Crawfish Cream Sauce: Heat olive oil in pan over medium heat. Saute shallots and garlic for 30 seconds. Add crawfish and creole seasoning. Saute an additional 1 to 2 minutes. Add cream, hot sauce and Worcestershire sauce. Bring liquid to a boil, then reduce to simmer. Simmer the cream until it thickens and reduces by half, about 5 minutes. Add butter, salt, pepper to taste. Fold in green onions.
  • 7
    Place blackened catfish on a bed of rice, then pour the crawfish cream sauce over the catfish.
