Ingredients - Serves 4

In a shallow dish, combine the cornmeal, flour, paprika, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper.
Dip each catfish fillet into the cornmeal mixture, pressing lightly to adhere the coating.
Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
Carefully place the coated catfish fillets into the hot oil and fry for about 4-5 minutes per side, or until golden brown and crispy.
Remove the fried catfish from the skillet and place on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.
Serve the fried catfish hot with lemon wedges on the side.
