Food Town Catfish Tacos with Hush Puppy Tortillas

Makes 10-12 small tacos

Ingredients:

Hush Puppy Tortillas

• ½ cup Slap Ya Mama Fish Fry
• 2½ tbsp All-Purpose Flour
• ¼ tsp baking soda
• 1 large egg
• ½ cup buttermilk
• 2 tbsp granulated sugar
• 10-12 small corn tortillas
• Vegetable/Canola Oil

Blackened Catfish

• 6 tbsp melted butter
• ½ cup Slap Ya Mama Cajun Seasoning
• 2 tbsp vegetable/canola oil
• 4 4-oz catfish filets or nuggets

Directions:

Hush Puppy Tortillas

1. In a cast-iron skillet, heat a few inches of oil to 350° Fahrenheit
2. In a bowl, mix together all ingredients except for tortillas.
3. Dredge each tortilla in the mixture, shaking off excess. Carefully place the tortilla in oil and cook until browned.
4. While it’s still hot, shape into taco shape by placing each half of the tortilla between wires on a wire rack. Let rest for a few minutes.

Blackened Catfish

1. Heat vegetable oil in another cast-iron skillet on medium-high heat for a few minutes. In a bowl, melt butter. Dip filet in butter then cover in seasoning.
2. Cook on each side for 2-3 minutes. Beware: this can create a lot of smoke.

Serve with pickled slaw or vegetables and Cilantro-Lime sauce (you use a prepared bottled sauce, such as Herdez or Hellmann’s, or make your own)
