I would like to know what seasoning would go well with this, i heard Creole was good and if so how long would i leave it on the fist..and then when i put it in the pan..how long??

THank you everyone!!!!

Catfish is very versatile. You can bread it and fry it. You can season and bake in foil. You can grill it.

Easy for first timers. Heat skillet with a small amount of olive oil, season Fillet with dry Italian dressing mix (like a package of good seasons). Place in skillet cook on medium high until opaque then flip and cook on other side. Its hard to over cook Catfish.

    Instead of smoked salmon, try this with a generous dollop of caviar on the eggs, or top them with smoked trout or whitefish.

    Servings: Makes 6 servings.

    1 cup crème fraîche or sour cream
    2 teaspoons grated Meyer lemon peel or regular lemon peel
    1/2 teaspoon salt

    12 large eggs
    3/4 cup heavy whipping cream
    1 teaspoon salt

    2 tablespoons olive oil

    2 1/4 cups thinly sliced leeks (about 1 1/2 leeks)

    1 tablespoon olive oil

    12 slices smoked salmon (about 8 ounces)
    1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh chives

    Whisk together crème fraîche or sour cream, lemon peel, and 1/2 teaspoon salt in small bowl. Refrigerate until ready to use, up to 4 days ahead.

    Whisk together eggs, heavy whipping cream, and 1 teaspoon salt in large bowl. Refrigerate until ready to use, up to 2 hours ahead.

    Heat 2 tablespoons oil in large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add leeks and sauté covered until soft, stirring occasionally, about 10 minutes. Add 1 tablespoon olive oil to same skillet. Increase heat to medium-high. Pour egg mixture into pan. Cook until light and fluffy, stirring constantly with a rubber spatula, about 8 minutes. Spoon eggs onto warm serving platter. Top with Meyer lemon crème fraîche, smoked salmon, and chives

    Serve remaining Meyer lemon crème fraîche alongside.

    My favorite fish. Broil with lemon, roll it in egg wash, coat with flour or corn meal. Fry in bacon fat till golden brown. Poach it with white wine.
