Ingredients

  • Four catfish fillets, each weighing 4 ounces
  • A generous tablespoon of fresh lemon juice
  • Half a teaspoon of salt
  • A quarter teaspoon of ground black pepper
  • A quarter cup of Parmesan cheese, freshly grated
  • Two tablespoons of softened butter
  • One and a half tablespoons of mayonnaise
  • Four ripe Roma or sun-dried tomatoes, thinly sliced

Step 1

To kick things off, get your broiler all warmed up to a toasty 500 degrees. Give a broiling pan a quick spritz with nonstick cooking spray. Next, give those fillets a delightful lemony bath, followed by a sprinkle of salt and pepper on both sides. Now, delicately place the fillets on the pan, making sure they're lying flat side up.

Step 2

In a quaint little bowl, whip up a delightful concoction of Parmesan cheese, butter, and mayonnaise.

Step 3

Pop the pan under the broiler, about 4 inches away from the heat source, and let the fish cook for a nice 6 minutes. Once done, take the pan out and flip the fillets over. Spread that cheesy mixture lovingly over each fillet, then crown them with some juicy tomato slices. Back under the broiler they go for another 4 to 6 minutes, or until the fish is tender enough to flake with a mere fork poke.
