Lime Broiled Catfish

TOTAL TIME: Prep/Total Time: 15 min. YIELD: 2 servings.
To serve a reduced-calorie dish that is ready in about 15 minutes, I came up with this fast, simple recipe. I think the lime juice adds a different fresh flavor to the mild taste of the fish. —Nick Nicholson, Clarksdale, Mississippi

Ingredients

  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • 2 tablespoons lime juice
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt, optional
  • 1/4 teaspoon pepper
  • 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 2 catfish fillets (6 ounces each)
  • Lime slices or wedges, optional
  • Fresh parsley, optional

Directions

  • 1. Melt butter in a small saucepan. Stir in the lime juice, salt if desired, pepper and garlic powder. Remove from the heat and set aside.
  • 2. Place fillets in a shallow baking pan. Brush each fillet generously with lime-butter sauce. Broil for 5-8 minutes or until fish flakes easily with a fork.
  • 3. Remove to a warm serving dish; spoon pan juices over each fillet. Garnish with lime slices and parsley if desired.
