Step 1
Preheat oven to 375°F. Slice each English muffin in half and spread each side with butter. Toast in oven until lightly browned.

You can also use an egg poacher if available

To assemble, place two sides of toasted English muffins on each plate then add grilled catfish and poached egg to each side. Drizzle with Hollandaise sauce and sprinkle with paprika.
