Steps:
- Place the catfish in a glass dish or deep pan.
- In a bowl whisk together the buttermilk, salt, pepper and Cajun seasoning.
- Pour the buttermilk over the catfish. Cover and let rest in the fridge.
- Place the cornmeal on a baking sheet.
- In a large pan, add about 1 inch of canola oil and heat until the oil sizzles when you drop a sprinkle of cornmeal into it.
- Lift out the fish filets one by one and let the excess buttermilk drip off.
- Dredge each catfish filet in the cornmeal and then gently place it into the pan with the hot oil. You may have to do this more than once as you don't want to crowd the pan.
- Pan fry the catfish on one side for about 3-4 minutes in the hot oil and then flip it over.
- Cook for a further 2-3 minutes until the fish filets are firm and opaque when broken with a fork.

- Transfer milk-soaked fish to the cornmeal mixture and gently roll to coat on both sides.

SOUTHERN FRIED CATFISH
Steps:
- Heat the peanut oil in a 5-quart Dutch oven over high heat until it reaches 350 degrees F on a deep-fry thermometer. Adjust the heat to maintain the temperature.
- Whisk the cornmeal and flour together in a shallow dish. Combine the seafood seasoning, kosher salt, paprika, and pepper in a small bowl. Season the catfish fillets evenly on both sides with the spice mixture. Pour the buttermilk into another shallow dish. Dip each fillet into the buttermilk, flip once to coat both sides, hold over the pan and allow the excess to drip off. Coat both sides of the fillets in the cornmeal mixture. Set the coated fillets on a cooling rack and let rest for 5 minutes.
- Gently add the fillets, 2 at a time, to the hot oil and fry until golden brown, about 5 to 6 minutes. Remove the fried fillets to a cooling rack set over a newspaper-lined half sheet pan. Repeat method with remaining fillets. Arrange the catfish on a serving platter and serve immediately.
CORNMEAL-CRUSTED CATFISH
Steps:
- Stir together the milk and 1 heaping tablespoon of the House Seasoning. Pour the milk mixture into a shallow baking dish large enough to hold the filets. Spread the filets in an even layer in the dish, turning to coat each side. Let marinate for about 1 hour in a cool place or the refrigerator.
- Pour enough oil into a large Dutch oven to come 2 inches up the side. Clip a deep-fry thermometer to the pot and heat over medium-high heat until the thermometer reaches 370 degrees F.
- Meanwhile, stir together the cornmeal, flour and remaining 1 heaping tablespoon House Seasoning in a paper bag. Working with a few filets at a time, remove them from the marinade, allowing any excess to drip off. Place them in the paper bag and gently turn the bag over several times until the filets are evenly coated with the cornmeal mixture. Remove the filets and place them on a baking sheet while you repeat the process with the remaining filets.
- Working in batches, fry the filets until golden brown and crisp on the outside and moist and flaky inside, adjusting the heat to maintain temperature, about 5 minutes. Transfer to a clean wire rack set over a rimmed baking sheet to drain. Serve the filets with lemon wedges.
- Stir together the garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt and pepper in a small bowl.
