Catfish Slider Ingredients

Method

Preparation Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Catfish

    In a bowl, combine the buttermilk, egg, cayenne pepper, salt, and black pepper. Add catfish fillets and soak for at least 30 minutes.

  2. 2

    Bread the Catfish

    In a separate bowl, mix cornmeal and flour. Remove catfish from buttermilk mixture, allowing excess to drip off, and coat in the cornmeal mixture.

  3. 3

    Fry the Catfish

    Heat oil in a deep skillet over medium-high heat. Fry catfish fillets until golden brown and cooked through, about 4-5 minutes per side. Remove and drain on paper towels.

  4. 4

    Assemble the Sliders

    On each slider bun, layer lettuce, a slice of fried catfish, a slice of tomato, pickles, and a dollop of tartar sauce. Top with the other half of the bun.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Serve immediately and enjoy your delicious catfish sliders!
