- Season both sides of the catfish with salt and pepper. Dredge both sides in the cornmeal mixture.
- Add enough vegetable oil in a large nonstick pan or cast iron skillet to reach ¾ to 1-inches in depth. Heat over medium heat until temperature reaches 350 to 360ºF (177 to 182ºC). Check the temperature between each batch and adjust the heat as needed to maintain this range.
