Catfish Preparation
- 1
Soak the Catfish
In a large bowl, pour the buttermilk over the catfish fillets, ensuring they are fully submerged. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.

Prepare the Breading
In a separate bowl, combine the flour, cornmeal, cajun seasoning, salt, and black pepper. Mix well.

Bread the Catfish
Remove the catfish from the buttermilk and let any excess drip off. Dredge each fillet in the flour mixture, pressing gently to adhere.

Fry the Catfish
In a large skillet, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Once hot, carefully add the breaded catfish fillets and fry for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Remove and drain on paper towels.
