Last time, I shared the Baked Garlic Lemon Shrimp that I served with some discounted crab. Today, you get to see the rest of the meal (except the sauerkraut - which will come another day still.)
This is my entry for this week's 
Strange to say, I have never had catfish before. It turned out to be a pleasant experience that I intend to repeat with this recipe.
Low-Carb Baked Catfish Nuggets
In a bowl, combine:
- 1/2 cup almond flour (or breadcrumbs if you're not worried about the carbs/grains)
- 1/4 cup grated/powdered Parmesan
- 1/2 teaspoon paprika powder
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
Cut into bite-sized nuggets:
- 1 lb catfish pieces/fillets
Dredge the fish in the breading.
Place on a silicone lined (or greased) pan and bake at 400F for 10-12 minutes. Reduce the temperature to 350F and bake another 8-10 minutes.
Serve with tartar sauce (recipe following).
Homemade Tartar Sauce
Due to almost all commercial sauces being based on soybean oil (on my "thou shalt not touch" list), I have to make these myself. I will (soon) share how I've recently learned to make the easiest mayonnaise ever...
This recipe is so simple and is really delicious!
Mix together:
- 1 cup mayonnaise
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 1 Tablespoon dried parsley (use more if using fresh)
- 1 Tablespoon chopped sweet pickle (I just used one small pickle)
- 1 Tablespoon lemon juice
- salt & pepper to taste
And it's done! Serve with seafood - as below...
I'll tell you (with my very-biased opinion) that this meal was pure delight, every part of it delicious and a definite do-again for me!
On the catfish, do watch for bones and "muddy" bits (errors in the cleaning, probably), but it's totally worth the effort.

Two of my kitchen witches. One hung in my grandmother's kitchen as long as I can remember, so I have mine - adding a certain magickal spice to my cooking, presumably...
My grandmother's now lives in my mother's kitchen.
