When my parents were down here to help us move into our new home, my mom bought two big bags of catfish nuggets. We had planned to do a fish fry one night, but all of the work we had to do on the house bogged us down so we never got around to it.… Continue reading Catfish Po’Boy Tacos

Cajun Catfish Salad
There's been a half-full bag of frozen catfish lounging in the back of my freezer for a few weeks now. I've been desperately trying to figure out what to do with it, but my mind kept drawing a blank. The only thing I could think of was to make fried catfish...I know, boring. There had… Continue reading Cajun Catfish Salad
Quick & Easy Catfish Wraps
One of my favorite things to get at the grocery store is catfish nuggets. It's simply chopped up catfish filets, but it's half the cost of an actual filet. My mom always uses catfish nuggets to make fried catfish, and now I can see why. I bought nearly 3.5 pounds of catfish for less than… Continue reading Quick & Easy Catfish Wraps
Shrimp & Catfish Creole
Today is my engagement-versary, if that's a thing. I can't believe it has been 3 whole years since Rob and I got engaged...and nearly 2 years since we got married. It's been a whirlwind these last few years. A crazy, wonderful whirlwind. Since I'm thinking about our engagement, it's made my mind wander to our… Continue reading Shrimp & Catfish Creole
Chili Lime Catfish & Corn Tacos
Oklahoma City is blessed to have such a diverse cuisine range in its restaurants. We have a little bit of everything here; Southern homecooking, Korean, Thai, Indian, even African food. But one of the shining stars in the food establishment engrained in our city hails from the southwest side. Once you drive south of I-40,… Continue reading Chili Lime Catfish & Corn Tacos
Buttermilk Fried Catfish with Southern Gremolata
Is there anything more summer, or Southern, than a fish fry? Just the smell of catfish fillets (or nuggets) dipped in golden cornmeal and then fried until crispy makes my mouth water. I've grown up around catfish, and good 'ol fish fries, my entire life. Catfish may be a bottom feeder, but it sure does… Continue reading Buttermilk Fried Catfish with Southern Gremolata
Blackened Catfish Alfredo
When you live exactly 1.5 million miles away from the ocean, seafood can be pretty hard to come by....most of the time. Thankfully, Oklahoma adapted. No seafood? No problem. We've got the bottom-feeder catfish to sustain our fishy fantasies. The freshwater fish is probably an acquired taste to most, and most of the time it's… Continue reading Blackened Catfish Alfredo
Catfish Pasta Primavera
Okay, I know it's only January 2nd. I know it is just the beginning of winter. But guess what? It was nearly 70 degrees here today, so it felt like Spring. I feel like I'm always way far ahead of the seasons. I set up my fall decor in August this year. August. Christmas decor and tree… Continue reading Catfish Pasta Primavera
Blackened Catfish with Cajun Remoulade
I'm here to make the case for eating imported (Indochinese farmed) catfish. I know what you're thinking. You've probably always grown up on U.S. born and bred catfish...and there is probably nothing better than catching a catfish yourself and eating it, sure. But in case you've never heard of Swai, or you've steered clear of… Continue reading Blackened Catfish with Cajun Remoulade
