Blackened Catfish

LIFE LOVE AND GOOD FOOD

This simple Blackened Catfish recipe for the Blackstone is a bit spicy and a tad sweet, perfectly crisp outside with a flaky, tender inside.

The best part is it cooks outside on the Blackstone griddle, so clean-up is a breeze and there are no lingering fish smells inside!

Let's get started

Step 4

Cook on the griddle. Place the filets on the hot grill and cook on each side for about 3-4 minutes, until the fish flakes easily with a fork and is a light golden brown color.
