Cornmeal Dusted Catfish

Method

Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Breading

    In a shallow dish, mix the cornmeal, flour, salt, and black pepper together.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Catfish

    In another bowl, beat the eggs. Dip each catfish fillet in the eggs, then coat with the cornmeal mixture.

  3. 3

    Cook the Catfish

    In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Once melted, add the catfish fillets and cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side until golden brown and cooked through.

  4. 4

    Serve

    Remove the catfish from the skillet and place on paper towels to drain excess butter. Serve hot with Corn & Snap Pea Succotash and Charred Tomato Vinaigrette.
