Season the fish on both sides with the spice mix.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In a large shallow bowl, stir together the flour, cornmeal, and the leftover spice mix.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In another large shallow bowl, whisk together the eggs, buttermilk, and hot sauce.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">One at a time, dip a fish fillet into the flour mixture and coat the fish in the mixture. Shake off any excess.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Dip the fish fillet into the egg mixture until coated and let any excess drip off.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Dip the fish fillet back into the flour mixture and coat it well. Shake off any excess and place it on a sheet tray. Repeat with the remaining fish fillets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When ready to fry, gently add one fish fillet at a time to the fryer and fry for about 3-4 minutes until golden brown and cooked through. Flip the fillet if needed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Place the fried fish fillets on a paper towel-lined plate to soak up any excess oil, and then place them on a sheet tray with a wire rack on top. This will help keep the fish crispy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Repeat with the remaining fish fillets and serve with lemon wedges and tartar sauce.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Fried Catfish Ingredients: 2 pounds catfish filets 2 teaspoons Old Bay seasoning 1 teaspoon garlic powder 1 teaspoon onion powder 1 teaspoon kosher salt 1 teaspoon black pepper 1 cup [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":10432,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[4],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-10431","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-recipe"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.garden-tricks.top\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/10431","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.garden-tricks.top\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.garden-tricks.top\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.garden-tricks.top\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.garden-tricks.top\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=10431"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.garden-tricks.top\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/10431\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":10433,"href":"https:\/\/www.garden-tricks.top\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/10431\/revisions\/10433"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.garden-tricks.top\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/10432"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.garden-tricks.top\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=10431"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.garden-tricks.top\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=10431"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.garden-tricks.top\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=10431"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
