Ingredients:

4 6-ounce fish fillets (catfish, salmon, halibut, tuna)
4 Tablespoons butter or olive oil
1 lemon, cut into wedges

Cajun Spice Mix:
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon oregano
1/2 teaspoon chili powder
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1/2 teaspoon thyme
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper

Rinse fish under cold water and pat dry with paper towels.

Mix cajun spice ingredients in a bowl. Rub spice mixture on both sides of fish fillets.

In a heavy skillet, heat oil over high heat. When pan is extremely hot, add fish fillets and cook 2 to 3 minutes per side, until spices are dark and fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork. Serve garnished with lemon wedges.
