Preparation

Prepare the Coating
In a separate bowl, mix cornmeal, flour, paprika, cayenne pepper, and garlic powder. This will be used to coat the seafood.
- 3
Heat the Oil
In a large skillet, heat vegetable oil over medium heat. Ensure there’s enough oil to cover the bottom of the skillet.

Coat the Seafood
Remove the catfish and shrimp from the marinade, allowing excess to drip off. Dredge each piece in the cornmeal mixture until fully coated.
- 5
Fry the Seafood
Carefully place the coated catfish and shrimp in the hot oil. Fry for about 3-4 minutes on each side or until golden brown and cooked through. Do not overcrowd the skillet; you may need to do this in batches.

Drain and Serve
Once cooked, transfer the seafood to a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil. Serve immediately with lemon wedges and your choice of dipping sauce.
