Here's a simple recipe for pan-fried catfish, which is a popular and flavorful way to cook catfish:
Ingredients:
- Catfish fillets (fresh or thawed if frozen)
- Cornmeal or all-purpose flour
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- Paprika (optional)
- Cooking oil (e.g., vegetable oil, canola oil, or peanut oil)
- Butter (optional)
- Lemon wedges (optional)
Instructions:
Prep the Catfish: Ensure the catfish fillets are clean and pat them dry with paper towels. This helps the breading adhere better and promotes a crispy crust.
Season and Coat: In a shallow dish, combine cornmeal or all-purpose flour with salt, pepper, and paprika (if desired) to taste. The paprika adds extra flavor and color to the breading.
Dredge the catfish fillets in the seasoned mixture, ensuring that both sides are evenly coated. Gently shake off any excess breading.
Preheat the Pan: Heat a skillet or frying pan over medium-high heat. Add enough cooking oil to cover the bottom of the pan. You want the oil to be hot but not smoking.
Frying the Catfish: Carefully place the breaded catfish fillets into the hot oil. Be cautious to avoid splattering.
Fry the fillets for about 3-4 minutes on one side until they are golden brown and have developed a crispy crust. If the fillets are thick, you may need to cook them a little longer on this side.
Gently flip the catfish fillets using a spatula and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes or until they are cooked through. The fish should be opaque and flake easily with a fork when fully cooked. The cooking time may vary depending on the thickness of the fillets.
