A delightful twist on a classic catfish sandwich, featuring a crispy texture and a zesty mayonnaise spread.
Preheat your grill pan over medium-high heat and lightly coat it with cooking spray.
Ensure the pan is hot before adding the fish to achieve a nice sear.
Season the catfish fillets evenly with the Cajun seasoning.
Pat the seasoning onto the fish to help it adhere better.
Place the fillets on the grill pan and cook for about 4 minutes on one side. Flip and cook for another 3 minutes or until the fish flakes easily with a fork.
Avoid flipping the fish too early to prevent sticking.
Toast the burger buns on the grill pan, cut side down, for about 1 minute until golden brown.
Keep an eye on the buns to prevent burning.
In a mixing bowl, combine the mayonnaise, minced shallot, Dijon mustard, and fresh lemon juice. Stir well to create a smooth sauce.
Taste the sauce and adjust the seasoning if needed.
Assemble the sandwiches by layering a lettuce leaf, a cooked catfish fillet, and a slice of tomato on the bottom half of each bun. Spread the zesty mayo on the top half of the bun and place it on top.
Press the sandwich gently to help it hold together.
Serve the sandwiches immediately while the fish is warm and the buns are crisp.
Pair with your favorite side dish for a complete meal.
