Healthy Fried Fish for Fish & Grits Recipe
This is a healthy interpretation of a Southern classic, fish and grits that I did for TheKitchenHotline.com. I’ll post the grits in side dishes.
- 2 Lbs Fresh white fish
- 2 Btls Pale beer
- 1 cup Stone ground cornmeal
- ½ cup Masa Harina
- To taste Cajun seasoning or salt and pepper
- Ample Coconut oil
- Marinate the catfish in beer for 1 to 2 hours. In a large bag or fish breader combine cornmeal, masa, and Cajun Seasoning to taste and shake well to mix.
- Drain the fish and add to breading to coat thoroughly. Fill a large frying pan with oil to halfway and heat to medium high.
- Flip fish once during frying, roughly 6 minutes on each side.
- Drain by placing fish onto a cooling rack over paper towels, lightly season at this point.
