Prep Time: 15 minutes

Cook Time: 40 minutes

Yield: 2 servings

Ingredients

For the fish:

• 2 catfish fillets, thawed
• 1 egg
• 2/3 cup cassava flour
• 1/8 cup coconut flour
• 1 tbsp. paprika
• 1 tsp. onion powder
• salt & pepper to taste

For the sandwich:

• 2 sandwich rolls of choice, sliced in half
• 1 cup mixed greens, divided
• ½ cup red onions, sliced

For the relish:

• 2 red bell peppers, diced finely
• ½ cup onion, diced finely
• ½ cup white wine vinegar
• ½ cup red wine vinegar
• 1 ½ tsp. red pepper flakes
• ½ tsp. salt

How to Make It

1. Make the relish by adding all the ingredients to a skillet and cook on high 5 minutes.
2. Stir occasionally until most of the moisture is gone 7-8 minutes more. Turn off the heat.
3. Cool briefly in the skillet then transfer to a glass dish and place in the refrigerator to chill.
4. While the relish cools, preheat the oven to 375 F. Prepare a baking sheet with parchment paper.
5. In a bowl, whisk together the egg.
6. In another bowl, add the cassava flour, coconut flour, paprika, onion powder, salt and pepper. Stir together.
7. Dip each catfish filet into the egg mixture then immediately into the flour mixture. Pat the flour mixture onto the filets liberally then transfer to the prepared baking sheet.
8. Bake at 375 F 25-30 minutes or until the filets are crispy brown. Remove from the oven.
9. Assemble the sandwiches by placing the greens on the bottom, then the catfish filet followed by the relish and sliced red onions. Enjoy immediately!
