Catfish Battered and Baked, Not Fried
- 1 cup Finely Ground Yellow Corn Meal. I Prefer Aunt Jemima Enriched-Degerminated
- 1- 1/2 teaspoon Tony Chacheres Original Creole Seasoning
- 1 teaspoon Old Bay Seasoning
- 1 teaspoon Paprika
- 2 teaspoons Salt
- 1 teaspoon Celery Seed
- 1 teaspoon Garlic Powder
- 1- 1/2 teaspoon Vegetable Oil (or Spray-able Oil)
- 4 pounds Fresh Catfish Fillets
- 1.
- Preheat oven to 425 F. 2.
- In a shallow bowl combine all dry ingredients (cornmeal through garlic powder).
- 3.
- Line a rimmed baking sheet/cookie sheet with heavy duty aluminum foil and coat the foil with a generous layer of vegetable oil or spray.
- 4.
- Dredge catfish fillets through dry mixture and place on the cookie sheet.
- Note: there is no need to add milk or eggs.
- Catfish has enough stickie built in to grab the cornmeal mixture.
- 5.
- Bake for 17 to 25 minutes depending on the thickness of the fillets.
- Cook until the fish breaks apart easily with a fork.
- 6.
- Enjoy!
