LAKE SHORE CLUB
Robert 


If you are from at least a 100 mile radius, and are of the age of 30 on up, you'd remember the Lake Shore Club. I am and I do! Robert and I graduated from Goretti High School the same year, so we go back a long way. We have remained close friends throughout the years. He has shared the recipes from the "Club" with me and I am working the portions down from 50 or there abouts to 4 - 8 portions. You will find many of the "Clubs" recipes throughout the book, some left in large quantity amounts.

For 2 Servings

Seasonings:
1 T. Sweet Red Spanish Paprika
2 1/2 tsp. Salt
1 tsp. Onion Powder
1 tsp. Garlic Powder
1 tsp. Cayenne Red Pepper
3/4 tsp. White Pepper
3/4 tsp. Black Pepper
1/2 tsp. Thyme
1/2 tsp. Oregano
1/2 tsp. Curry Powder

Mix all together and rub all over the fish fillets.

2 Catfish fillet not to be more than 3/4" thick, and about 12 to 14 ounces each.

Heat cast iron skillet until it is very hot, it cannot be too hot….

Put fish in skillet and pour 1/4 cup butter on one side of the fish and cook for about 2 minutes. Then turn the fish and add 1/4 cup more of melted butter and cook for another 2 minutes. Serve immediately.
