Ingredients

Servings:6
  • 1 1/2 pounds Catfish fillets, sliced into strips
  • 1 cup Buttermilk
  • 1 1/2 cups Yellow cornmeal
  • 2 tablespoons Creole seasoning
  • 1/2 cup Creole mustard
  • 1/4 cup Mayonnaise
  • 1/2 cup Pickled okra, sliced lengthwise
  • 4 pieces French bread loaves or hoagie rolls
  • 2 cups Shredded iceberg lettuce
  • 3 cups Vegetable oil for frying

Instructions

  1. 1

    Place the catfish strips in a shallow dish and cover with buttermilk; let soak in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.

  2. 2

    In a separate bowl, whisk together the Creole mustard and mayonnaise to create the zesty spread; set aside.

  3. 3

    In a large zip-top bag or shallow bowl, combine the cornmeal and Creole seasoning, mixing thoroughly.

  4. 4

    Heat the vegetable oil in a heavy skillet or deep fryer to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.

  5. 5

    Remove catfish from buttermilk, letting excess drip off, then dredge thoroughly in the seasoned cornmeal mixture until well-coated.

  6. 6

    Fry the catfish in batches for 3 to 5 minutes until golden brown and crispy, then drain on a wire rack.

  7. 7

    Toast the bread lightly and apply a generous layer of the mustard spread to both sides of the loaf.

  8. 8

    Assemble the Po' Boy by layering the fried catfish, shredded lettuce, and sliced pickled okra inside the bread.
