Ingredients:

two teaspoon solid pose down chipotle
two teaspoon solid pose down ancho chile


Directions:

Preheat oven to 350. Mix together the cornflake crumbs, chili powder, chipotle together with ancho chile powders inwards a shallow bowl. Dredge each nugget inwards the crumbs together with accommodate inwards a unmarried layer on a parchment newspaper lined baking sheet. Bake twenty minutes or until fully cooked.

My thoughts:
My grocery shop sells cutting upwards catfish for fifty-fifty cheaper than catfish filets (I intend it must live the ends leftover from cutting the rather long catfish into normal sized filets) which is only patently awesome. Normally prepped nutrient is to a greater extent than expensive together with hence I'm used to buying whole cuts of meat or fish together with cubing it myself together with hence to live able to purchase something I dearest to swallow together with would live cutting upwards anyway for less is amazing! If you lot can't purchase catfish already cut-up, I honour the easiest means to cutting it yourself is using kitchen shears.

Normally I fry catfish when I'm eating it "plain" (aka non inwards gumbo, paella or étouffée) but inwards the involvement of both wellness together with ease of cooking, I idea I'd endeavor to bake it instead. When I was a child, my mom would brand chicken thorax rolled inwards cornflake crumbs together with I scream upwards it beingness actually crispy together with hence I idea I'd endeavor that on the catfish. My biggest pet peeve amongst baked "nuggets" or other nutrient that is ordinarily fried is that it is never crispy enough.The cornflakes did the trick! The nuggets were crisp together with tasty together with rattling moist.
