Makes 4 servings
Prep: 8 min Cook: 20 min

Ingredients

• 2 Tbsp olive oil, divided
• ½ small onion, thinly sliced
• 1 clove garlic, minced
• ½ tsp red pepper flakes
• 1 bunch collard greens, cleaned, stems removed, shredded
• 2 Tbsp water
• 1 Tbsp apple cider vinegar
• 1½ Tbsp no-salt Cajun seasoning (or make your own blend using 2 tsp paprika, 1 tsp onion powder, 1 tsp garlic powder and ½ tsp cayenne pepper).
• 4 4 oz catfish fillets (you can substitute any white fish, such as tilapia or trout)
• Nonstick cooking spray

Preparation

Preheat oven to 425°F.

Heat 1 Tbsp olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the onion and cook until translucent, around 3 minutes. Add garlic and stir. Add red pepper flakes, greens, water and vinegar. Cover and cook until tender, around 20 minutes.

While greens are cooking, combine 1 Tbsp olive oil and Cajun seasoning in a shallow bowl. Prepare a baking sheet with nonstick cooking spray. Using a pastry brush, spread each catfish fillet with the seasoning mixture and place onto baking sheet. Bake at 425°F for 15 minutes or until fish flakes with a fork.

Distribute onto 4 plates and serve greens and catfish while warm.
