5-Ingredient Fix Contest Entry. The crispy potato crust keeps the fish filets moist and tender inside. They are great for a dinner party because they can easily be kept warm and crispy when placed in a warm (250 degree) oven.

Number Of Ingredients 5

24 ounces catfish fillets
1/2 cup buttermilk
1 teaspoon hot sauce
2 tablespoons canola oil

Steps:

  • Combiner buttermilk and hot sauce in a ziplock bag. Add fish filets and refrigerate for 10 minutes .

  • Place potatoes in a bowl and use a pair of scissors to cut potatoes into smaller shreds (about 1/4 inch pieces). Pat with a paper towel to remove any excess water.
  • Remove fish from buttermilk allowing excess to drip of and place on a paper towel. Divide half of the potatoes evenly between the fish filets spreading and pressing firmly onto the tops of fish filets. The layer of potatoes should be about 1/4 inch thick.
