Catfish Courtbouillon Recipe
Yield: 4 ServingsRecipe by luhu.jp
Ingredients:
2 large: Catfish fillets, or any firm fish
1 cup: Onions, chopped fine
1/2 cup: Celery, chopped fine
2: Garlic cloves, minced
1/3 cup: Butter,
1/3 cup: Flour,
1 tsp: Salt,
1/2 tsp: Black pepper,
1/4 tsp: Cayenne pepper, or more, for real Cajun flavor
3 large: Tomatoes, peeled and quartered, or use about a 1 lb can of tomatoes
3 cup: Water,
2 cup: Rice, (cooked), hot
Directions:
In a deep skillet or dutch oven mix the butter and flour together
over low heat to form a roux (a thick, smooth, bubbly mixture). Add
the onions, celery and garlic and saute until tender. Add the
tomatoes, salt, pepper, cayenne and water. Simmer covered for 20-30
minutes. Add fillets and cook until tender and flaky, 15-20 minutes.
Serve on a bed of rice.
The amount of cayenne here is set for a mildly hot taste. It can be
increased up to a full teaspoon for the full nuclear version!
NOTES:
* Cajun Catfish -- Catfish courtbouillon (pronounced coo-be-yon) is a
spicy fish dish served over rice.
: Difficulty: easy.
: Time: 1 hour.
: Precision: approximate measurement OK, but measure the pepper.
