Fried Catfish With Dickey Sauce

1. 1

   Combine the eggs, Worcestershire, hot sauce, and milk together in a large bowl and beat it until frothy.

2. 2

   In a shallow dish large enough to contain the fish, whisk together the cornmeal, flour, salt, pepper, and lemon pepper.

3. 3

   With a small knife, score both sides of the catfish four times across, deeply, about 11/2 inches apart.

4. 4

   Dip the catfish into the egg wash, then dredge it completely with the cornmeal mixture, evenly coating the fish; set it aside.

5. 5

   In a large pot or deep fryer, heat the oil to 325 degrees. Add the fish-one at a time for whole fish (if using fillets, two at a time)-and cook 7-8 minutes, or until golden brown and crisp. Remove and place on paper towels to drain. Serve with scallions and Dickey sauce.
