Summer Blackberry Upside-Down Cake
Ingredients
  • 1 cup white rice
  • 2 cups water
  • 1 teaspoon Cajun seasoning
  • 1/2 teaspoon hot pepper sauce
  • 1 teaspoon ground thyme
  • 1 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon ground cayenne pepper
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon paprika
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried dill weed
  • 1/4 teaspoon lemon pepper
  • 2 (8 ounce) fillets catfish
  • 1/2 cup butter, melted
  • 1 teaspoon lemon juice, or to taste
Instructions
1
Boil a mixture of rice, water, Cajun seasoning, and hot pepper sauce in a saucepan until it reaches a rolling boil.
2
Reduce the heat to a lower setting, cover the pan, and let it simmer for 20-25 minutes or until the rice is cooked through and all the liquid has been absorbed.
3
While the rice cooks, combine thyme, black pepper, cayenne pepper, salt, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, dill weed, and lemon pepper in a bowl and mix until the ingredients are thoroughly blended.
4
Brush catfish fillets with melted butter on both sides and coat them evenly with the seasoning mixture.
5
Heat any remaining butter in a large skillet over high heat and cook the seasoned catfish until it's easily flaked with a fork, flipping it over halfway through the cooking time - approximately 4-5 minutes per side.
6
Serve the catfish over a bed of seasoned rice, drizzling any leftover butter from the skillet over the top and finishing it off with a squeeze of lemon juice.
