This is an easy and tasty way to make catfish. The mustard adds a nice tang but doesn't overwhelm the other flavors. It also helps to seal in the juices. I would serve this along with some hushpuppies.

SERVES 4 (change servings and units)

Ingredients

3/4 cup yellow cornmeal
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons salt
1 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
4 catfish fillets
yellow mustard
vegetable oil

Directions

1
Heat oil in a large cast iron skillet to 350 degrees. About 1 1/2 inches depth.
2
Combine cornmeal, flour, salt, cayenne pepper and garlic powder.
3
Coat fish with thin layer of mustard on both sides.
4
Dredge catfish in cornmeal mixture.
5
Fry fish for about 5-6 minutes.
6
Remember don't overcrowd your pan or it won't be as crispy. I usually fry 1-2 fillets at a time.
