Southern Fried Catfish


Directions

Preheat a deep-fryer to 375 degrees F or In a large, sauce pan pour vegetable oil - half way .
In a large bowl mix together, cornmeal,garlic, onion powder, cayenne, salt and pepper. If fish fillet too large cut into bite-sized pieces. Dip each strip in buttermilk and lightly deep into the remaining corn meal. Deep fry the fish in the fryer or saucepan a few pieces at a time, moving them around so they don't stick. Fry until brown and crispy, about 3 to 4 minutes or more depending on the size. These big chunks took about 6 minutes per side. Remove from the fryer with a slotted spoon place on a cookie rack to ensure crispness. Repeat with the remaining fillets and season the fish with lemon juice. Serve with tartar sauce.
