Method

Preparing the Sirloin

  1. 1

    Season the Sirloin

    Sprinkle the sirloin steak with salt, black pepper, garlic powder, paprika, and cayenne pepper evenly on both sides.

  2. 2

    Cook the Sirloin

    Heat a skillet over medium-high heat. Add the seasoned sirloin and cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side for medium-rare, or until desired doneness is reached. Remove from heat and let it rest for 5 minutes before slicing.

Preparing the Fried Catfish

  1. 3

    Prepare the Breading

    In a shallow bowl, combine the cornmeal and all-purpose flour. Mix well.

  2. 4

    Dip in Buttermilk

    In another bowl, pour buttermilk and dip the catfish fillet into the buttermilk, ensuring it is fully coated.

  3. 5

    Coat with Breading

    Take the buttermilk-coated catfish and dredge it in the cornmeal and flour mixture, pressing down to adhere the breading.

  4. 6

    Heat Oil

    In a deep skillet or frying pan, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C).

  5. 7

    Fry the Catfish

    Carefully place the coated catfish fillet into the hot oil. Fry for about 3-4 minutes on each side or until golden brown and cooked through. Remove and drain on paper towels.

Serving

  1. 8

    Serve the Dish

    Slice the rested sirloin steak and serve alongside the fried catfish. Garnish with lemon wedges and serve with hot sauce on the side.
