This is the second recipe I had tagged for a game I play on Zaar. It was a very good recipe that was easy to prepare and the end result was delicious. I did use a 500g piece of beef fillet instead of the rib eye or sirloin suggested, as I loved this tender cut of meat and it was on special at the store so I could not resist. Both this and the cat fish recipe were by the same chef and both were truly wonderful recipes so I would recommend you trying them both. I am going to get round to posting some more of my own recipes over the next few days as I have few in back log now. To read more reviews on this recipe or to view more photos please click here.

I tagged this as part of 2 recipes by the same chef for a game I play on Zaar. It was absolutely delicious for such a minimal effort meal. I have 2 in my family that are not big fish lovers they will eat it but it would not be their first choice for dinner and both raved about just how good this was. I am making her second recipe today and if last night was anything to go by I an in for another treat today. This dish is really such a great combination of ingredients and you end up with a restaurant quality meal which is really easy to prepare.

Ingredients
1 1/2lbs Catfish fillets, cut into strips
2 Teaspoons cajun blackening seasoning
4 Tablespoons mayonnaise
1 Cup sliced fresh mushrooms (can substitute canned, drained)
8 Tablespoons butter, divided
1/2 Cup chopped fresh parsley
1 Cup sliced green onion
1lb Peeled shrimp
2 (10 3/4 ounce) Cans condensed cream of shrimp soup
Method
1. Sprinkle catfish with blackened seasoning.
2. Spread catfish with mayonnaise.
3. Place in shallow dish; cover and refrigerate for 1 hour.
4. In a large skillet, heat 4 tablespoons butter until begins to sizzle.
5. Sear fish until golden, turning once.
6. Transfer to 9×13 baking pan in a single layer.
7. In a different skillet, heat 4 tablespoons butter, cook and stir mushrooms until golden.
8. Stir in parsley, green onions and shrimp.
9. Reduce heat to low and cook until shrimp are just pink through and through.
10. Stir in soup and blend well; turn off heat.
11. Ladle over fish (or chicken) in baking dish.
12. Preheat oven to 375 degrees and bake 30 minutes. (Reminder if fillets are thin, reduce cooking time).
I cooked mine all on the stove top and just topped the fish with sauce, it would probably be better to do chicken in the oven to be sure that it is cooked all the way through.
I served ours over wild rice with chopped red pepper and snow peas.
