Serves/Makes: 4 - 6

Ingredients:

• 1 pound catfish fillets, cut into 1-inch wide strips
• 1 cup shredded cabbage
• 1/2 cup chopped cilantro
• 1 cup corn meal
• 1 tablespoon chili powder
• 1 tablespoon Cajun seasoning
• 1/2 cup corn oil
• 1/2 cup mayonnaise
• 2 tablespoons salsa
• 24 small corn tortillas

How to cook Mexican Catfish Tacos:

• Mix corn meal, chili powder and Cajun seasoning together in a shallow dish and set aside.
• Mix salsa and mayonnaise together and set aside.
• Heat oil in a large heavy bottomed skillet.
• Run catfish under cold water to moisten (you can also use milk or buttermilk to moisten the catfish) and dredge/coat catfish with corn meal mixture.
• Fry the catfish in heated oil until brown and crispy (about 3-4 minutes per side). Remove catfish from pan and drain off excess oil on paper towels.
• Heat tortillas by placing them in a dry non-stick skillet over med-high heat for about 30 seconds per side.
• Prepare the fish tacos as soon as the tortilla comes off the heat. To do so, stack two tortillas together, place a portion of shredded cabbage in center of tortilla, add a few catfish strips, top with some cilantro and spoon a tablespoon or so of mayonnaise and salsa dressing over the top.
• Fold tortilla in half and eat!
