Ingredients
*Flour, white, .5 cup fresh catfish (4 oz), 4 serving *Canola Oil, 1 tbsp *Japanese Breadcrumbs - Panko (1 cup), .5 serving Pepper, red or cayenne, .5 tbspPepper, black, .5 tbsp Salt, 1 dash Milk, nonfat, .5 cup
Directions
Mix 1/2 the flour ,panko, peppers, and salt on a plate. Put 1/2 flour plain on another plate. Pour milk in small bowl. Cut fish filets into 2 oz portions. Roll fish in flour, then dunk fish in milk and then roll in flour/panko mixture. The three layers are what makes it crispy. Heat oil in pan over high (may need to turn down if your pan gets to hot) Place fish in pan. Turn over after about 2 minutes. Cook until fish is just opaque and flakes easily. We serve this with Alexia fries, and a salad.

    Didn't have panko crumbs, used grated parmesan instead, and left out the red/cayenne pepper. Husband's comment, "Excellent" - 9/28/14
