I found a recipe for buttermilk chicken fingers which gave me this idea for dinner tonight. I bought catfish nuggets on sale yesterday for $2/lb (they're huge). I'm soaking those in a couple cups of buttermilk (about a dollar's worth) and a few teaspoons of the Garlic Earth Asian Garlic Seasoning. The nuggets will nap all day in the refrigerator (see the bits of garlic, onion and such floating in there?). You could certainly use any of the 3 Garlic Earth flavors, but my son's favorite is the Asian.
Tonight I'll coat them in panko, a little more Asian Garlic Seasoning and Parmesan cheese. Then I'll bake them with olive oil spray and we'll see! How bad could it be?!
Tuesday Night Update: These were the best catfish nuggets ever. I dipped the nuggets in a mixture of cornmeal, flaxmeal and a little Asian Garlic Seasoning, then dipped it back into the buttermilk mixture, then rolled them in panko breadcrumbs. I then set them on a seasoned cookie sheet, sprinkled them with Parmesan cheese, more seasoning (olive oil spray), then baked them for 25 min. at 375 degrees. Crunchy, yet tender in the middle. Best ever!
