INGREDIENTS

2 Simmons 5-7 oz. Fillets.

1 egg.
1/2 cup buttermilk.
3/4 cup cornmeal.
1/2 cup all-purpose flour.
2 teaspoons salt.
1 teaspoon pepper.
1/2 teaspoon dried basil.
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder.
1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper.
6 slices of green tomatoes, 1/4-inch-thick (about 2 tomatoes).
1 cup vegetable oil.

PREPARATION

Step 1

Heat oil to 350°F in a large skillet.

Step 2

Whisk egg and buttermilk in a small bowl. In another bowl, stir together cornmeal, flour and seasonings. Dip tomato slices in egg mixture, then dredge in cornmeal mixture, shaking off excess.
Step 3

Fry tomato slices, in batches, in hot oil for 1 minute on each side; drain on paper towels. Remove any excess oil from the pan.

Step 4

Season catfish fillets with salt and pepper and place in the skillet. Cook for 3 minutes, flip and cook an additional 3 minutes. Remove from pan. Cut fillets in half. Place a fried tomato on the plate and top with catfish. Repeat, ending with tomato on top. Serve with a side salad and your favorite dressing.
