World Cuisine Recipe ⟶ Cilantro Lime Catfish

I was looking for a recipe for Mexican catfish and wasn't able to find exactly what I wanted, so I made my own version. I wasn't sure what it would end up like, but it tasted great.

Ingredients

• ¼ cup butter
• ¼ cup chopped fresh cilantro
• ½ teaspoon chopped garlic
• 5 (5 ounce) fillets catfish
• salt and ground black pepper to taste
• ½ lemon, juiced
• ½ lime, juiced

Cooking Directions

1. Melt butter in a skillet over medium heat. Stir cilantro and garlic into the melted butter; cook about 1 minute.
2. Season catfish fillets with salt and black pepper; lay gently into the butter mixture. Place a cover on the skillet. Cook fillets 10 minutes, turn, and continue cooking until the fish flakes easily with a fork and is lightly browned, about 10 minutes more. Squeeze lemon juice and lime juice over the fillets to serve.
