Wash and dry all produce. Adjust oven racks to middle and top position. Preheat oven to 450°F. Cut @Yukon gold potatoes{1%lb} into ½-inch-thick wedges. Toss on a #baking sheet{} with @fry seasoning{2%tbsp} and 4 tsp @vegetable oil{3%tbsp}. Season with salt and pepper.

Roast potatoes in oven on middle rack until browned and crisp ~{25%minutes}, tossing halfway through. On another #baking sheet{}, toss @broccoli florets{1%unit}, a large drizzle of vegetable oil, and a pinch of salt and pepper. Roast in oven on top rack until tender and crisp ~{15%minutes}.

Finely chop @dill{1%unit} until you have 1 tbsp. Cut @Persian cucumber{1%unit} lengthwise into thin spears. Mince a spear or two until you have 3 tbsp minced cucumber and set aside in a #small bowl{}.

Add @mayonnaise{½%cup} and half the dill to bowl with minced cucumber and stir to combine. Season to taste with salt, pepper, and up to 2 tsp @white wine vinegar{2%tbsp}. Set aside 4 tsp sauce for brushing fish. In a #medium bowl{}, toss together cucumber spears, remaining white wine vinegar, and 1 tsp @sugar{1%tsp}. Season with salt and pepper.

Microwave 2 tbsp @butter{2%tbsp} to melt in another #small bowl{} on high heat ~{20%seconds}. Stir in @panko breadcrumbs{1%cup} and remaining dill. Season with salt and pepper. Once broccoli is done, remove from baking sheet and set aside. Pat @catfish fillets{2%unit} dry with a paper towel, then place on same baking sheet.

Brush 1 tsp of reserved sauce onto top of each catfish fillet. Press panko mixture into sauce to adhere. Bake in oven until just opaque ~{5%minutes}. Heat broiler to high, then transfer sheet to broiler. Broil until crust is golden brown ~{2-3%minutes}. Divide between plates and serve with broccoli, potatoes, pickles, and sauce to the side.
