This is the best catfish ever! applauds Ellen De Munnik of Chesterfield, Michigan. It's fast to prepare...and the cayenne adds a little zip, Her golden cornmeal and herb coating keeps the fillets moist and gives them traditional appeal without the fat that comes from frying. Ingredients:
1/4 cup buttermilk |
2 teaspoons dijon mustard |
1/2 cup cornmeal |
1 teaspoon each salt, onion powder, garlic powder and paprika |
1/2 teaspoon dried thyme |
1/2 teaspoon pepper |
1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper |
1 pound catfish fillets |
lemon wedges, optional |
Directions:
1. In a shallow bowl, whisk buttermilk and mustard until smooth. In another bowl, combine the cornmeal and seasonings. Dip fillets into buttermilk mixture, then into cornmeal mixture. 2. Place 1 in. apart on a wire rack coated with cooking spray. Place rack on a baking sheet. Broil 4 in. from the heat for 3-4 minutes on each side or until fish flakes easily with a fork. Serve with lemon if desired. Yield: 4 servings. |
