INGREDIENTS
- 1/3 cup milk
- 1 large egg ; beaten
- 1/3 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
- 4 catfish fillets ; farm-raised
- 1/2 cup (1-stick) butter ; divided
- 1/4 cup olive oil
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice ; freshly squeezed
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley ; chopped
- 1/2 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
- fresh parsley sprigs ; for garnish
- lemon wedges ; for garnish
INSTRUCTIONS
Mix milk and egg in a shallow dish. In another shallow dish mix flour, salt and cayenne pepper. Dip fillets in the milk mixture, then dredge in the seasoned flour, shaking off excess. Set aside on a piece of wax paper.
Heat 4 tablespoons of the butter and 1/4 cup oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the fillets in a single layer and cook about 3 minutes on each side or until golden brown and fish flakes easily when tested with a fork.
While the fillets are cooking, melt the remaining 4 tablespoons of butter in a small saucepan. When the butter stops foaming and just starts to brown, stir in the lemon juice, parsley and Worcestershire sauce.
Transfer catfish fillets to a warm serving dish and pour the butter sauce over the fillets. Garnish with parsley sprigs and lemon wedges and serve.
Variation -- Catfish Grenobloise: Follow the recipe for catfish meuniere, but add 1/4 cup drained capers to the butter as it is being heated for the butter sauce to pour over the fish.
