Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons brown rice flour
  • 1 dash table salt
  • 1 dash cayenne pepper (optional)
  • 1/2 cup pecans, halved
  • 1 extra large raw whole egg
  • 1/2 tablespoon fat free milk
  • 6 fillet catfish
  • 1 tablespoon pecan oil

Instructions

  1. In a food processor add brown rice flour, salt, pepper, and pecans. Process until finely ground. Transfer the flour mixture to a large bowl.
  2. In another mixing bowl, whisk together egg and milk. Dip the fish filets in the egg mixture first, then the flour mixture.
  3. Add pecan oil to a large sauté pan. Place the catfish filets in a pan and cook for 2- 2 1/2 minutes on each side until golden brown. Remove filets from a pan and place on a baking rack while other filets cook.
  4. Top with any remaining chopped pecans.
