I had never had or made catfish before this. But my whole family liked it and I will be making it again soon. I always think of catfish as being blackened or fried, so I did a combo of the two. The amounts are all a guess, I just eyeballed everything.. so adjust them to your taste! We ate it with tartar sauce and red beans and rice.
Ingredients:
1 -2 lb catfish
1/2 cup milk
2 tablespoons hot sauce
1/2 cup cornmeal
2 tablespoons cajun seasoning (or blackened seasoning)
1/2 tablespoon paprika
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper (optional)
3 tablespoons butter (or oil)
Directions:
1. mix milk and hot sauce.
2. mix cornmeal with all of the spices.
3. dip catfish in the milk mix.
4. dip in the cornmeal mix, coat fish well.
5. heat butter or oil in a large heavy skillet over med-high heat.
6. cook fish a few minutes on each side until flaky.
7. serve with tartar sauce.
