Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 Heartland Catfish U.S. Farm-Raised Fillets
  • 1 pint cherry or grape tomatoes
  • 16 ounces fresh green beans
  • 1cup freshly shredded mozzarella cheese (buy fresh to avoid added fillers and carbs)
  • ½cup freshly grated parmesan cheese
  • ½ cup basil pesto (check label to avoid added fillers and carbs)
  • 2 ½ tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 ¼ teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1 ¼ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

Instructions

  1. Arrange two racks in the oven: one in the middle and one below. Preheat oven to 400°F.
  2. Place tomatoes and green beans on a rimmed baking sheet. Drizzle with olive oil, season with salt and pepper and toss. Evenly spread keeping vegetables separate.
  3. Thoroughly pat catfish fillets dry. Season all sides with salt and pepper. Center fillets on the baking sheet.
  4. Place both baking sheets in the oven and cook for 10 minutes.
  5. Grate parmesan and shred mozzarella cheese.
  6. After 10 minutes, remove both baking sheets from oven.
  7. Coat catfish with a thin layer of pesto until each fillet is evenly covered. Place back in oven and cook for an additional 5 minutes.
  8. Toss green beans before sprinkling with parmesan and mozzarella cheese. Bake for 5-10 minutes or until cheese is golden brown and bubbly.
  9. Remove both sheets from oven, plate and enjoy!
