A Blackened Catfish Sandwich is a light and flaky sandwich that will transport you to the beach.blackened catfish sandwich | superman cooksThese tasty light sandwiches make Jackie and I think of summer and sitting with our toes in the sand. We tried to capture this idea when setting up the shoot, conjuring a light and airy feeling, while showcasing the beauty and flavors of this Blackened Catfish Sandwich. Once I saw the photos, I decided we needed to begin planning our next vacation! blackened catfish sandwich | superman cooksWe specifically chose catfish for our sandwiches, but this recipe will work for any fish fillet. Catfish used to have a stigma of being a dirty, bottom-dwelling fish that would scare people away. Today, most catfish is farm-raised and has a great fresh, light flavor. It has a similar texture to sole or perch. Jackie and I have always been partial to catfish, and have tried this recipe with other fish, but we always return to our favorite.blackened catfish sandwich | superman cooksWhen you read this recipe, it may sound a little spicy. Do not be afraid. The addition of mayonnaise in the dressing and the pineapple and cabbage slaw mixes well and keeps the heat level to a minimum. We recommend a cold beer or a margarita to accompany this sandwich, as it will be sure to transport you to the beach as well.blackened catfish sandwich | superman cooks
