Blackened Catfish With Crab Claw Cream Sauce

[TNJAKE]

Evening fellas and non fellas. Was in the mood for something different and after all the catfish and hatch Chile posts decided to jump on it

Had the Blackstone fired up nice and hot. And some nice catfish fillets. Once griddle was rocking I melted a ton of Cajun butter. Dipped the fillets in the butter and coated heavily with blackening season

Put some more butter on the griddle and threw the fish on

About 3 minutes or so and I flipped

At this point my porch is smelling amazing

While I was doing the catfish wife made up a crab claw cream sauce to go over the fish. It's your basic cream sauce with fresh crab. Butter, heavy cream, flour, parmesan, salt/pepper, crab

She also roasted some potatoes using hatch valley green from the flat iron pepper company. Delicious stuff but she didn't take pics.
Fish done. Sauce done

Plated up with the blackened catfish and crab claw cream sauce, hatch roasted taters and a Cesar salad

One of the best things I've ever cooked

We had another trip planned for either Tuesday or Wednesday, but that is cancelled now with two hurricanes barreling towards Louisiana to make landfall on those days.... Might be good days for making more salami indoors...
Will be cleaning the yard and securing everything tied down tomorrow....
