I simply love an excellent bit of fried catfish! It isn't something I recieve to need to offend however when I actually do this is actually the recipe I crave. This recipe includes a nice balance of flour and corn meal that my entire family loves. What really transmits this Catfish within the edge is it is marinated in buttermilk and hot sauce! Will it have any better?
We enjoy having this with Hush Young puppies . A real southern meal. )
- 2 cups buttermilk
- 1/2 teaspoon hot sauce
- 2 lbs. catfish filets, boneless skinless
- 2/3 cup all-purpose flour
- 2/3 cup yellow cornmeal
- 2 teaspoons salt
- 1 teaspoon pepper
- 1 teaspoon red pepper
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic clove powder
- peanut oil, for frying
Cooking Directions
- *Inside a large dish combine buttermilk and hot sauce. Place catfish in dish, cover and chill for six to eight hrs. Make sure all of the fillets are coated and included in buttermilk mixture.
- When prepared to prepare pull fish from refrigerator. Preheat a sizable skillet about 2 " of oil over medium high temperature. Inside a cake dish or shallow dish mix together flour, cornmeal, salt, red and black pepper, and garlic clove powder. Remove use buttermilk let it drip off excess. Dredge in flour/corn meal mixture, get rid of excess. Once breaded let it rest for around 15 mins before frying.
