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.
