The secret to our Crispy Baked Catfish Fillets? A dip in egg and a crumb mixture of crackers, oregano and chili pepper. To spoon over the crispy fillets, we're making zesty, creamy remoulade. Originally a French sauce, remoulade is incredibly popular in the region.

Instructions to make Crispy and Spicy Catfish Fillets:
  1. Position a rack in the top third of the oven and preheat the oven to 400°F. Coat a large baking sheet with vegetable oil spray (I brushed along the foil with vegetable oil instead).
  2. In a wide, shallow bowl, whisk together the egg and buttermilk. Place the panko (I used coarse bread crumbs) in another wide, shallow dish. Sprinkle the fillets all over with the Old Bay seasoning (I created my own seasoning).
  3. Working with one fillet at a time, coat it on both sides with the egg mixture and allow the excess to drip off. Place it in the panko (bread crumbs), and coat on both sides. Transfer to the prepared baking sheet. Repeat with the remaining fillets, arranging them on the baking sheet in a staggered formation so they all fit. Spray (brush) the fillets with the vegetable oil.
  4. Bake for 8 minutes. Use a spatula to carefully flip the fillets and spray (brush) them again with oil. Bake until lightly browned, about 8 minutes more. Serve with lemon slices (and garlicky mayochup sauce, optional)
