    3 tablespoons crumbled blue cheese
    2 tablespoons mayonnaise
    1/4 teaspoon minced garlic
    1/2 cup peeled and diced English cucumber
    1/2 cup cornmeal
    1/2 teaspoon ground red pepper
    1/2 teaspoon salt
    4 catfish fillets (1-1/2 to 2 pounds total)

    Recipe




    Directions
    1. For Blue-cheese Sauce, line a sieve with paper towel or coffee
    filter; set over a bowl. Spoon yogurt into sieve; cover and refrigerate
    1 hour to drain. Combine drained yogurt, blue cheese, mayonnaise,
    garlic, and cucumber in medium bowl. Cover and refrigerate 15 minutes.

    2. Meanwhile, combine cornmeal, ground red pepper, and salt in 9-inch
    pie plate. Dip each fillet in egg, then coat in cornmeal, shaking off
    excess.

    3. Heat oil and 1 tablespoon butter in large nonstick skillet over
    medium-high heat. Fry fish 3 to 4 minutes per side, until golden brown
    and cooked through. Transfer fish to each of four serving plates. Melt
    remaining 1 tablespoon butter in same skillet over low heat; remove from
    heat. Stir in pepper sauce; divide and drizzle over fish, scraping pan
    with a rubber spatula. Serve immediately. Makes 4 servings.
