Directions

In a large, heavy-bottomed pot, heat oil to 320 degrees. In a large bowl, whisk together cornmeal, Onion & Garlic Tableside, seasoning of choice, and salt. Dredge catfish fillets in cornmeal mixture to coat on all sides. Carefully drop catfish into oil, in batches if necessary, and monitor the temperature of the oil to keep it around 320 degrees. Fry for 10 to 12 min. or until crust is light golden brown. Serve immediately.
