1 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon paprika
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon dried thyme leaves
½ teaspoon black pepper
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 tablespoon butter
Rinse catfish fillets under cold water and pat dry with paper towels. In small bowl, combine cayenne, cumin, paprika, salt, thyme, and
pepper. Coat both sides of fish with spice mixture.
Preheat skillet at 400°. Heat oil and butter until melted. Add fillets to skillet; sear 2 minutes, gently flip fillets, and sear 2 more minutes.
Remove fillets to a plate, cover, and set aside.
To existing liquid in skillet, add garlic, zucchini, onion, and asparagus. Cook 4 to 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Reduce heat to 220°. Add couscous, broth, lemon juice, and thyme sprigs. Stir well until couscous is fully covered with liquid. Cover
and simmer 8 to 10 minutes, stirring once or twice. If mixture starts to stick, stir in 1 to 2 tablespoons of water.
When couscous and vegetables are al dente, return fillets to skillet. Reduce heat to 185°; cover and heat gently 5 to 6 minutes. Serve
