Chili And Beer Braised Catfish
This is a quick, tasty and different alternative to fried catfish. Tomatoes, beer, chili powder, garlic, onion, worcestershire sauce and a shot of tabasco combine in a delicious simmering sauce. This makes a lot of sauce; i like to save what isn't used and add a few impromptu ingredients for a nice homemade seafood stew.
Steps
In a large plastic ziplock bag , combine flour , chili powder , garlic and salt.
Add catfish pieces and coat thoroughly.
Heat olive oil in a large skillet and brown catfish on all sides , about 3 minutes per side.
Remove fish to a plate.
Set aside.
Add onions to skillet and cook for about 5 minutes or until turning golden.
Add beer , tomatoes with their juices , worcestershire sauce and tabasco sauce.
Simmer together about 5 minutes , then return browned catfish to skillet and simmer uncovered until done , turning occasionally , about 15 to 20 minutes.
