Crisp-Crusted Catfish
Crisp-Crusted Catfish - Light recipe Submitted by: Robin
Again, I'm watching the fat intake and eating a lot more fish. This was a great recipe!
2 tablespoons light ranch dressing
2 large egg whites
6 tablespoons yellow cornmeal
1/4 cup (1 oz) grated fresh Parmesan cheese
2 tablespoons all-purpose four
1/4 teaspoon ground red pepper
1/8 teaspoon salt
4 (6 oz) farm-raised catfish fillets
Cooking spray
4 lemon wedges
1. Preheat oven to 425
2. Combine the dressing and egg whites in a small bowl, and stir well with a whisk. Combine the cornmeal, cheese, flour, pepper, and slat in a shallow dish. Dip fish in egg white mixture; dredge in cornmeal mixture.
3. Place fish on a baking sheet coated with cooking spray; bake at 425 for 12 minutes on each side or until lightly browned and fish flakes easily when tested with a fork. Serve with lemon wedges.

I made this and it was crispy and tasty. Next time I will add a little more Cayenne Pepper, as it wasn't spicy enough for us.
