Catfish Recipes



BBQ Trout

MARINADE: Use hand mixer to blend all ingredients well.

1/2 c Soy sauce
1/2 c Cooking sherry
1 tb Lemon juice
1 Clove crushed garlic
1/4 c Salad oil

Brush trout with lemon juice inside and out to preserve freshness before refrigeration. Place 2 trout, 10 to 12 inch fish, in shallow baking dish; pour marinade over fish. Let stand for one hour. Place on grill and cook until done, approx. 15 minutes. The drained marinade should be used for basting during cooking.


Broiled Trout

Preheat the broiler. Sprinkle the cavity with salt and pepper. Rub the outside with oil. Place on an oiled rack 5-inches below the broiler (at the second level) and broil for 5 minutes on each side. The skin will just be spottily charred and the flesh moist and tender. Serve with lemon wedges.

Variations:

Broiled Trout with Rosemary:

Place a sprig of rosemary in the cavity of each trout before cooking.

Broiled Trout with Cream:

Use a shallow pan instead of the broiler rack. After broiling 2-3 minutes on the second side, pour 3/4 cup heavy cream over trout and broil another 5 minutes, basting a couple of times. Omit lemon wedges and sprinkle with 1 tablespoon of chopped parsley and 1 tablespoon of fresh tarragon or 1 teaspoon dried, crumbled.


Fried Trout

Clean and wash the fish and cut into serving pieces, leaving the skin on. Salt and pepper and coat throughout with cornmeal.

In a fry-pan bring 1/4-1/2 inch of shortening to high heat, add fish, and fry for approximately 4 minutes; turn, and cook 3 minutes more. Fish should be nicely browned. Put fish on hot serving platter.

Pour off the fat from the pan and replace with butter, add the sour cream, and stir with a spoon to loosen any greables. Cook several minutes, but do not boil.

Remove from heat, add lemon juice, stir, and pour over trout.


Glazed Trout

6 Trout (8 to 10 oz. each)
1/2 c Teriyaki Baste & Glaze (Kikkoman)
4 ts Fresh lime juice
1 tb Finely chopped fresh dill weed
Non-stick cooking spray
3 Limes; cut into wedges

Score both sides of trout with 1/4-inch deep diagonal slashes 1 inch apart. Combine next 3 ingredients; brush trout, including cavities, thoroughly with mixture. Let stand 30 minutes. Coat grill rack with cooking spray; place 4 to 5 inches from medium-hot coals. Cook trout on rack 5 minutes on each side, or until fish flakes easily with fork. Brush occasionally with baste & glaze mixture; serve with lime wedges. (Or, broil trout on rack of broiler pan 5 minutes on each side, brushing occasionally with baste & glaze mixture.)
