Spicyandcrispycatfishfillets Recipes

Steps:

• For the crispy fish: Heat 1 inch vegetable oil to 375 degrees F in a heavy-bottomed pan. Season the fish with salt and pepper on both sides.
• In a bowl, whisk together the milk, eggs and 2 tablespoons hot sauce. In another bowl, whisk together the flour, cayenne, chili powder and 1 teaspoon each garlic powder and paprika.
• In a small saucepan (or in the microwave), melt the butter with the honey, remaining 2 tablespoons hot sauce and a pinch each garlic powder and paprika.
• In batches, dip the fish fillets into the egg mixture, coating each side, then let the excess drip off. Dredge in the flour mixture, coating each side. Fry until golden brown and cooked through, about 1 1/2 minutes per side. Transfer the fish to a baking sheet fitted with a wire rack. Use a pastry brush to coat each fillet with the melted butter mixture.
• For the sandwiches: Serve the fish on the toasted hoagie rolls with tartar sauce, shredded iceberg, sliced tomato and pickles.

Steps:

• In a shallow dish, whisk together the egg, mustard, and salt; set aside. Place the potato flakes in another shallow dish.
• Heat oil in a large heavy skillet over medium-high heat.
• Dip fish fillets in the egg mixture. Dredge the fillets in the potato flakes, making sure to completely coat the fish. For extra crispy, dip into egg and potato flakes again.
• Fry fish fillets in oil for 3 to 4 minutes on each side, or until golden brown.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Line a 10x15-inch baking pan with foil and coat lightly with nonstick cooking spray.
• Stir together yogurt, green onions, lime juice, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper in a large bowl. Stir in coleslaw. Cover and refrigerate until chilled, about 1 hour.
• Arrange sweet potatoes on prepared pan. Drizzle with 1 tablespoon oil. Sprinkle with chili powder and 1/4 teaspoon salt; toss to coat. Bake in preheated oven until tender and browned, 20 to 25 minutes.
• Rinse fish and pat dry with a paper towel. Stir together egg and water in a shallow dish. Mix together cereal, remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt, and remaining 1/4 teaspoon pepper in another shallow dish. Dip each fillet in egg mixture, letting excess drip off; dip in cereal mixture, turning to coat.
• Heat remaining 1 tablespoon oil in a 10-inch oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat. Add fish and cook until just golden, about 3 minutes. Turn fish. Transfer skillet to oven. Bake until fish flakes easily, about 15 minutes. Serve with sweet potatoes and slaw.

Steps:

• Bring the rice, water, Cajun seasoning, and hot pepper sauce to a boil in a saucepan. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until the rice is tender, and the liquid has been absorbed, 20 to 25 minutes.
• While rice is cooking, mix thyme, black pepper, cayenne pepper, salt, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, dill weed, and lemon pepper in a bowl until well blended. Brush catfish fillets with butter and sprinkle with seasoning mixture other both sides.
• Heat any remaining melted butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat; pan-fry seasoned catfish in butter until fish is easily flaked with a fork, 4 to 5 minutes per side.
• Serve catfish over a plate of seasoned rice. Pour leftover butter from the skillet over fish and sprinkle with lemon juice.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425°F.
• Combine dressing and egg whites, whisk well.
• Combine cornmeal, parmesan, flour, pepper and salt in shallow dish.
• Pat fish dry, dip in egg mixture and dredge in cornmeal mixture.
• Place fish on a baking sheet coated with cooking spray.
• Bake 8-12 minutes each side until lightly browned and fish flakes easily.
• Serve with lemon wedges.

Steps:

• Preheat the oil in a large pot to 300 degrees F. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line a tray with paper towels.
• Cut the potatoes into large wedges, about 10 per potato. Fry the potatoes for around 4 minutes. (They will be soggy.) Remove them to the lined tray and pat them dry. Turn the oil to 375 degrees F.
• Meanwhile, sprinkle the fish all over with salt. Combine 1/2 cup flour and 1 teaspoon turmeric on a plate, then season with salt. Dredge the fish in the flour mixture and let sit on the plate. Mix the baking soda with the remaining 2 cups flour and 2 teaspoons turmeric in a second bowl. Season well with salt. Slowly whisk in the beer until the batter has a pancake-batter consistency (you might not use it all). Fold in the egg whites. Adjust with more or less flour or beer as needed.
• Line a sheet tray with a wire rack. Fry the potatoes at 375 degrees F until crispy, about 4 minutes. Transfer to the rack and season with salt immediately. Hold the chips in the oven while you fry the fish.
• Lower the fry oil to 250 degrees F and line a plate with paper towels. Pat the excess flour from the fish, then coat in the batter. Gently lower the fish into the oil and fry until golden brown and the fish is cooked through, 3 to 4 minutes. Transfer the fish to the lined plate and season with salt. Serve with Tartar Sauce, chips and lemon wedges.
• Combine the mayonnaise, pickles, capers, peppers, lemon zest, lemon juice and dill in a medium bowl. Season with salt and pepper and mix until combined.

Steps:

• Combine garlic, salt, black and red peppers, paprika and oil in a small bowl. Press pepper mixture onto catfish.
• Place fillets in a baking pan and broil until opaque in the center, 6 to 8 minutes.

Steps:

• Put flour in a bowl.
• In a shallow dish, whisk together the egg, mustard and salt.
• Place panko crumbs in yet another bowl and add in garlic and pepper.
• Dust fillets with flour, then dip in egg/mustard mixture and then press into panko.
• Heat enough oil to fry one fillet in a large heavy skillet over medium-high heat. Fry each fillet individually and put a small amount of oil in before each fillet rather than the full 1/4 cup all at once since it seems doing it this way causes me to use WAY more oil than needed.
• Fry fish fillets in oil for 3 to 4 minutes per side or until golden brown.
• Serve with fresh squeezed lemons.

Steps:

• Position a rack in the top third of the oven and preheat to 400 degrees F.
• Spray a large baking sheet with cooking spray.
• Season fish with Old Bay seasoning.
• In a shallow dish, whisk the buttermilk and egg to combine.
• Dip the fillets in the buttermilk, then coat on both sides with the breadcrumbs.
• Arrange in single layer on the baking sheet.
• Spray the fillets with the cooking oil and bake for 8 minutes.
• Carefully turn the fillets and spray again with the oil; continue to bake until crispy, about 8 minutes longer.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Place a sheet of aluminum foil onto a baking sheet, and grease lightly.
• Place fillets onto the foil, and sprinkle with garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Spoon picante sauce over fillets, and squeeze lime juice over the top. Bring the sides of the foil together, and fold the seam to seal in the fish.
• Bake in preheated oven for 15 to 20 minutes, or until fish flakes easily with a fork.

Steps:

• Place oven rack in the top 1/3 of the oven and preheat it to 425 degrees F.
• Set a wire rack in a baling pan and coat the rack lightly with non-stick cooking spray and set aside.
• In a food processor, fitted with the metal blade, or in a blender, combine the cornflakes, chili powder, thyme and garlic powder.
• Use the on/off pulses until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
• Transfer the mixture to a shallow bowl or plate.
• If the fillets are large, cut them into serving-size pieces.
• In a bowl, whisk together the buttermilk, salt and pepper and then dip the fish into the mixture to coat.
• Dredge the fish into the crumb mixture next, turning to coat both sides.
• Place the fillets on the prepared rack and repeat with remaining fillets.
• Coat both sides of the fillets with the non-stick cooking spray.
• Bake 14-18 minutes, or until the crumb coating is golden brown and crisp and the fish is opaque at the center.
• Serve with lemon wedges.
