Instructions
Place Catfish into a flat container and add Milk.
Cut Lemon in half and squeeze about two teaspoons of juice into Milk to make Buttermilk.
Place container in refrigerator and let Fillets soak for 15 minutes.
In a shallow bowl, combine Cornmeal Seasoning Ingredients.
Remove Fillets from Buttermilk and pat dry with paper towels.
Spread Mustard generously over both sides of Fillets.
Dip each Fillet into Cornmeal mixture and coat well to make a thick coating.

Cook at 390/400 degrees for 10 minutes. Flip over Fillets and spray with Oil and cook an additional 3-5 minutes.
Notes
A combination of Yellow Mustard and Dijon Mustard will also work well.
