Catfish Nuggets w/ Savory Herb Potatoes and Savory Herb Potatoes and Green Beans

Dinner Tonight: Catfish Nuggets w/ Savory Herb Potatoes and Savory Herb Potatoes and Green Beans






Just a cup of Bigelow Decaf Green Tea for Breakfast. I had a real rough night dealing with Phantom Pains. I didn't get an hours worth of sleep. They finally let up around 10:00 this morning. I'm really exhausted, these were the worst I've had in a while. I just wish someone would come up with a cure for Phantom Pains! Anyway after Lunch I went back to bed for most of the afternoon. For Dinner tonight its Catfish Nuggets w/ Savory Herb Potatoes and Savory Herb Potatoes and Green Beans.






Picked up the Catfish Nuggets at Kroger the other day and had them in the freezer. Layed the bag in the fridge overnight to thaw To prepare them I rinsed the Catfish Nuggets off in cold water and patted dry with a paper towel. Seasoned them with Sea Salt. Then put them in a Hefty Plastic Storage Bag and added Zatarain’s Crispy Southern Fish Fri Breading Mix, shook the bag until all the Nuggets were coated. Then pan fried them in a medium size skillet in Extra Light Olive Oil. Fried each side about 3 1/2 minutes, until a golden brown. The Zatarain’s Crispy Southern Fish Fri is perfect for the Catfish, great flavor and the Nuggets were good size and meaty. You can bake Catfish but for me you just can’t beat frying Catfish.



For one side dish I prepared the Little Potato Co. Savory Herb Potatoes. We love these! The Potatoes come in a microwavable tray. Just pop the tray in the microwave for five minutes and mix in the seasoning pack and you have a nutritious and tasty Potato Dish. These are definitely a good item to have in the pantry! So easy to prepare and no clean up.











Then I also heated up a large can of Del Monte Cut Green Beans. Just empty the can into a sauce pan and heat until heated through. I also Baked a Loaf of Garlic Loaf Bread. This has become the family’s favorite Baked Bread. For Dessert/Snack later a bowl of Skinny Pop – Pop Corn and a Coke Zero to drink.







Catfish
The most commonly eaten species in the United States are the channel catfish and the blue catfish,
both of which are common in the wild and increasingly widely farmed. Farm-raised catfish became such a staple of the diet of the United States that on 25 June 1987, President Ronald Reagan established National Catfish Day to recognize “the value of farm-raised catfish.”

Catfish is eaten in a variety of ways. In Europe it is often cooked in similar ways to carp, but in the United States it is popularly crumbled with cornmeal and fried.… Wikipedia
