PECAN CRUSTED DIJON BAKED CATFISH



Pecan Crusted Dijon Baked Catfish image

Simple, delicious alternative to frying catfish southern style. I was dubious about the mixture of pecans and Dijon, but it worked and produced a slightly tangy, crusty finish to the fish. If you've never tried catfish, it is a real treat. The least "fishy" fish I've ever had. My fillets were huge, so I made 1 1/2 times the topping mixture. From Southern Church Suppers

PECAN-CRUSTED CATFISH WITH SPICY CREAM SAUCE



Pecan-Crusted Catfish with Spicy Cream Sauce image

Provided by Melissa d'Arabian : Food Network

Categories     main-dish

Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 17

Four 4-ounce catfish fillets
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
2/3 cup cornmeal
1/2 cup pecans
1/4 cup flour
1/2 cup milk
1 egg
1/4 cup vegetable oil
2 chunks yellow onion (about 1/4 small onion total)
1 clove garlic, smashed
1/2 cup chicken stock
1/2 cup white wine
1 tablespoon steak sauce
Juice of 1/2 lemon (about 3 tablespoons)
3 tablespoons sour cream
3 tablespoons unsalted butter
Rice or mashed potatoes, for serving

Steps:

  • For the pecan-crusted catfish: Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Sprinkle the fish with salt and pepper and set aside. Pulse the cornmeal with the pecans and some salt and pepper in a food processor until uniform and the size of breadcrumbs. Create a breading station with the flour on a plate, the milk and egg beaten together and the pecan-cornmeal mixture on another plate. Be sure to sprinkle salt and pepper on each part of the breading station. Dip the fish in the flour, then the egg, then the cornmeal mixture. Heat the oil in a large oven-safe saute pan over medium heat. Brown the coated catfish until golden on one side, about 3 minutes. Then turn the fillets over and place in the oven to finish cooking, about 10 minutes longer (a few minutes more if the fillets are thick).
  • For the spicy cream sauce: Place the onions and garlic with the stock, wine and 1/2 cup water in a small saucepan. Boil and reduce for 5 minutes, gently pressing on the onions and garlic to release the flavors. Remove the onion and garlic and discard. Turn down the heat to low and whisk in the steak sauce and lemon juice, then the sour cream. Allow to cook and reduce 2 minutes. Remove from the heat and whisk in the butter, 1 tablespoon at a time, allowing the sauce to thicken slightly. (Place back on the heat for 10 seconds if needed to keep the temperature high enough.)

Pecan-Crusted Catfish with Zesty Tartar Sauce image

Sour cream replaces mayonnaise as the base for the tartar sauce here. Serve this fish with corn on the cob and chilled slices of melon on the side.

Yield Serves 4; 3 ounces fish and 2 tablespoons sauce per serving

Number Of Ingredients 11

4 catfish fillets (about 4 ounces each), rinsed
2 tablespoons low-fat buttermilk
2 slices light whole-wheat bread (lowest sodium available), coarsely torn
2 medium green onions, thinly sliced
3 tablespoons chopped pecans
1/2 teaspoon salt-free lemon pepper
1/2 cup fat-free sour cream
2 tablespoons dill pickle relish
1 teaspoon grated lemon zest
1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
1/2 teaspoon dried dillweed, crumbled

Steps:

  • Put the fish in a single layer in a large shallow dish. Drizzle the top side with half the buttermilk, spreading to cover. Turn the fish over and repeat with the remaining buttermilk. Cover and refrigerate for 10 minutes to 1 hour, turning occasionally.
  • Preheat the oven to 400°F.
  • In a food processor or blender, process the bread for 5 to 10 seconds to make soft crumbs.
  • In a shallow dish, stir together the bread crumbs, green onions, pecans, and lemon pepper.
  • Drain the fish, discarding the buttermilk. Add the fish to the bread-crumb mixture, turning to coat. Using your fingertips, gently press the mixture so it adheres to the fish. Reserve any remaining bread-crumb mixture. Transfer the fish to a nonstick baking sheet. Sprinkle with the reserved bread-crumb mixture.

This recipe comes from the Dec 2009 issue of Woman's Day. It is an easy version of one of my favorite Southern Living Recipes that uses catfish. I think other varieties of fish would work well in this recipe as well as catfish - salmon, tilatipa and others.

Yield serves 4

Number Of Ingredients 17

1/3 cup yellow cornmeal
1/4 cup pecans
Coarse salt and fresh ground pepper
4 skinless catfish fillets (6 ounces each), rinsed and patted dry
4 tablespoons vegetable oil
Lemon wedges (optional)
