Mediterranean Catfish
Ingredients
  • 4 (4 ounce) fillets catfish
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/4 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
  • 2 tablespoons butter, softened
  • 1 1/2 tablespoons mayonnaise
  • 4 roma tomatoes or sun-dried tomatoes, sliced thin
Instructions
1
Preheat your oven to its highest temperature setting, which is usually denoted as 'broil'. Set the broiler to a high heat level of 500 degrees Fahrenheit.
2
Next, take a broiling pan and give it a light coating of non-stick cooking spray to prevent the fillets from sticking.
3
To prepare the fish, take each fillet and give it a good brush on both sides with freshly squeezed lemon juice. Then, sprinkle a pinch of salt and pepper over the top to add flavor.
4
Place the fillets flat side up on the prepared broiling pan, making sure they are not overlapping each other.
5
In a small bowl, combine grated Parmesan cheese, softened butter, and mayonnaise to create a tasty sauce.
6
Place the fillets about 4 inches away from the heat source and broil for 6 minutes, or until they are cooked to your liking.
7
Remove the pan from the oven and carefully flip the fillets over. Spread the cheese sauce evenly over each fillet, making sure to cover them completely.
8
Top each fillet with a few slices of fresh tomato.
9
Broil the fish for an additional 4 to 6 minutes, or until it flakes easily with a fork when you take a bite.
