Blackened Catfish

Responsibly farmed catfish, like the kind we serve at Brown Sugar Kitchen, are a “best choice” on the Monterey Bay Aquarium Seafood Watch list. Catfish is very delicate, and not a good choice for grilling, but perfect for this preparation. I think its slightly sweet flavor is a great foil for some spice and this blackening spice definitely has a kick. Get out your cast-iron skillet and get real. Nothing tastes better with this dish than sweet corn and in-season tomatoes.
