Yield:
4 Servings
Ingredients:
Amount Ingredient
1 tbl Lemon peel - grated
2/3 cup Buttermilk
2 tbl Butter
1 tbl Parsley, minced
1/2 tsp Cayenne pepper
4 x Catfish fillets
1 tbl Vegetble oil
Instructions:
Instructions: Combine cornmeal, flour, lemon peel and cayenne in shallow dish.

Season with salt. Pour buttermilk into second shallow dish. Dip 1 fish fillet into buttermilk, then into cornmeal mixture, coating completely. Repeat process with remaining fish. (Note from me: Let fish stand for approximately 15 minutes before proceeding.) Melt butter with oil in heavy large skillet over medium-high heat. Add fish and cook until crust is golden brown and fish is cooked through, turning once, about 4 minutes per side. Transfer fish to platter.

Sprinkle with minced parsley. Garnish with lemon wedges.

NOTE: If you let the fish sit coated for the 15 minutes that I recommend, this dish will take 45 minutes. Believe me, let the fish sit for the 15 minutes; it will keep the coating on the fish with no hassle whatsoever.
