Ingredients
-
1 cup cornmeal
-
2 teaspoons ground cayenne pepper
-
2 teaspoons paprika
-
1 teaspoon onion powder
-
⅓ cup extra virgin olive oil
-
4 (4 ounce) fillets catfish
-
1 cup milk
-
4 cloves garlic, minced
Directions
-
In a mixing bowl, stir together cornmeal, cayenne pepper, paprika and onion powder. Mix well. Pour mixture onto a large sheet of waxed paper.
-
Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
-
Pour milk into a medium bowl. Dip catfish filets into milk and hold up and let the milk drip off. Roll the milk-soaked filet in the cornmeal mixture until completely covered. Set aside.
-
Fry the garlic in the hot skillet, but do not burn. Add the coated catfish filets and cook for 5 to 7 minutes on each side, sprinkling salt on the fish after each turn. Cook until golden brown and fish flakes easily with a fork. Drain on paper towels.
