Cornmeal-Crusted Catfish Rolls

Yum, y'all!  These are good!  I found them awhile back on Better Homes and Garden's site.  They're really easy and make me think of summer.  I love the sandwich as a whole, but if you want to eat the fish plain, it's good too; just add some salt.

1 1/2 lb catfish fillets
1/4 c cornmeal
2 t Cajun seasoning
1/4 c vegetable oil
1/4 large sweet red pepper
1 stalk celery
1/4 small red onion
1/3 c mayonnaise
1 T ketchup
1/4 t bottle hot pepper sauce (optional)
sesame seed buns, toasted

Rinse fish; pat dry.  Cut into 8 pieces.  In a shallow dish combine cornmeal and 1 1/2 t of Cajun seasoning; coat fish with mixture.

In a large skillet, cook fish in hot oil over medium-high heat for 8 - 10 minutes or until browned and fish flakes easily.

Meanwhile, thinly slice peppers, celery (lengthwise), and onion.  Combine in a bowl.  In another bowl, combine mayo, ketchup and remaining Cajun seasoning (and pepper sauce, if you use it).  Add 1 T mayo mixture to the pepper-celery mixture.  Spread some of the remaining mayo sauce on cut sides of rolls.  Assemble sandwiches with catfish and celery mixture.  Serve with remaining mayo sauce.

Fish Tacos

Okay. I'm almost embarrased to add this to my recipes, because it's not really a recipe. It's more of an assembling together of stuff you buy already prepared. But I like easy, and I'm realistic enough to know that surely there are others out there like me that need something this easy but still tastes really good.

1 package of breaded fish, cooked according to directions
romaine lettuce
sliced red onion
tortillas, warmed
tartar sauce


Assemble and gobble!
