These catfish nuggets are chunks of golden brown, crispy catfish! Serve with ketchup or tartar sauce.
Ingredients
- 2 pounds catfish fillets, cut into 1 1/2-inch pieces
- 2 tablespoons dried thyme leaves
- 1 cup spicy brown mustard
- 1 quart vegetable oil for frying
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
Directions
Step 1
Place catfish pieces into a mixing bowl and sprinkle with thyme leaves; toss to coat. Mix in mustard with your hands. Cover and refrigerate for 8 hours to overnight.
Step 2
Heat oil in a deep-fryer or large saucepan to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
Step 3
Whisk together flour, salt, black pepper, and baking soda in a large bowl. Dip catfish pieces, one at a time, into flour mixture and shake off excess.
