Catfish King Coleslaw Recipes

CATFISH PO BOY

Steps:

• Combine coleslaw mix, pepperoncini peppers, red onion, mayonnaise, lemon juice, red wine vinegar, Dijon mustard, sugar, salt, 1/2 teaspoon granulated garlic, 1/2 teaspoon granulated onion, and lemon pepper in a large bowl. Toss until well combined. Cover and refrigerate until ready to use.
• Place catfish fillets in a large shallow baking dish. Sprinkle hot sauce over the top and turn the fillets to coat.
• Combine Cajun seasoning, flour, cornmeal, bread crumbs, 1 tablespoon granulated garlic, 1 tablespoon granulated onion, black pepper, and cayenne pepper in a large brown paper bag. Add catfish fillets and shake gently to coat fillets thoroughly.
• Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Fry breaded catfish fillets until browned and crisp, about 3 minutes per side. Place on paper towel-lined paper plates to drain.
• Spread each hoagie bun with 1/4 cup remoulade-style spread. Place 2 catfish fillets on top and top with 1 to 2 cups coleslaw. Garnish with lemon wedge, cherry tomato halves, and banana pepper rings.

BLACKENED CATFISH- COLE SLAW WRAPS

Steps:

• To prepare slaw: combine cabbage, mayonnaise, vinegar and sugar in a bowl; cover and chill.
• Combine flour and the next 5 ingredients in a shallow dish (or use flour with approximately 3 T commercial blackened seasoning mix). Dredge fillets in flour mixture and drizzle with melted butter.
• Coat grill rack with nonstick cooking spray. Preheat grill to medium-high. Grill fish, covered, 7 minutes on each side or until fish flakes with fork. (I've also sautéed the fillets when grilling wasn't convenient).
• Heat tortillas according to package directions. Cut each catfish fillet lengthwise into 4 strips. Arrange 4 fillet pieces on each tortilla; top each serving with about 3/4 cup slaw and roll up burrito-style.
