Buttermilk Marinated
Fried Catfish Recipe
Plan Ahead: This Buttermilk Marinated Fried Catfish recipe will need to marinate at least
2 hours.
The buttermilk will keep your catfish moist and will add a slight tangy flavor to them.
You can substitute the salt with any seasoning you like.
Also remember to lid your marinating dish, you don't want no other flavors being absorb from the
refrigerator. I just use a gallon zip-lock baggie to marinate the catfish, easy and no clean up.
Ingredients
- 8 catfish fillets (preferred size 4 oz each)
- 2 tablespoons salt (or favorite seasoning)
- 1 tablespoon black pepper
- 1 1/2 cups- yellow corn meal
