Blackened Salmon/Catfish & Dill Sauce

We had two pieces of Salmon and one catfish fillet, So I decided to cook em together! This was a pretty easy recipe overall. I made the dill sauce fist, so it could chill in the fridge while I prepared and cooked the fish. Tamera made the veggies and salad and it all came together nicely!
