How to Make Sauteed Catfish In Garlic And Mushrooms

  1. Pat 2 (6-ounce) catfish fillets dry with paper towels. Season generously with salt and pepper, and squeeze fresh juice from 1/2 a lemon over both sides.
  2. Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
  3. Add 2 cloves of minced garlic and 8 ounces of sliced cremini mushrooms to the skillet. Sauté for 3-4 minutes, or until the mushrooms are softened and lightly browned.
  4. Add the catfish fillets to the skillet and cook for 3-4 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through.
  5. Spoon the garlic and mushroom mixture over the fillets. Cover the skillet and cook for another 2-3 minutes, or until the fish is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.
  6. Serve immediately and garnish with fresh parsley (optional).
