Dirty, ugly, bottom feeder (wild) vs. farm raised? Go for the farm raised, not any better looking but a whole lot better and safer for you. Pluses: mild sweet flavorful taste with a flaky texture, inexpensive (compared to some other fish), healthy, only about 100 calories per 3 ounce serving and provides about 25 % of your daily protein requirement, considered eco-friendly and sustainable. I love the traditional southern fried version but I'm supplying a healthier recipe here. The Catfish Institute has a hundred more flavorful recipes that prove their slogan “ The real beauty is in the taste”.
3tbsp. Maggi or soy sauce
1 tbsp. fresh lemon juice
2 tsp. liquid smoke flavoring
¼ tsp. garlic powder
4 farm raised catfish fillets
freshly ground black pepper
Preheat your broiler. Combine Maggi, lemon juice, liquid smoke and garlic powder in a small bowl, add fillets to marinade and let sit for 5 minutes. Place fish on broiler pan, season with pepper and broil 3 inches from heat for about 5 minutes, basting frequently until fish flaks easily.
