Two fried catfish fillets, served with hushpuppies and your choice of two sides.

Soak catfish fillets in buttermilk for at least 30 minutes. This helps to tenderize the fish and adds flavor.

Prepare the Catfish

In a shallow dish, mix cornmeal, flour, Cajun seasoning, salt, and pepper. Remove fillets from buttermilk, allowing excess to drip off, then coat in the cornmeal mixture.

Coat the Catfish

Heat oil in a deep skillet over medium-high heat. Fry catfish fillets for about 4-5 minutes on each side or until golden brown and cooked through. Drain on paper towels.
