    Title: Catfish Pecan Meuniere
    Categories: Emeril, Seafood, Nuts, Citrus, Dairy
    Yield: 4 Servings

    1 c Flour
    Rustic Rub; given below
    2 lg Eggs; beaten
    1/2 c Milk
    4 (8 oz ea) catfish filets
    1/2 c Oil
    8 tb Unsalted butter
    1 c Pecan pieces
    1/4 c Fine chopped parsley
    2 tb Minced garlic
    1/4 c Worcestershire sauce
    2 tb Fresh lemon juice
    1/4 c Heavy cream
    Salt & cayenne pepper
    2 c Mashed potatoes; warm
    1 c Haricot verts; seasoned,
    - sauteed in butter
    1 tb Brunoise red pepper
    1 tb Chopped chives

    MMMMM-------------------------RUSTIC RUB------------------------------
    8 tb Paprika
    3 tb Cayenne
    5 tb Freshly ground black pepper
    6 tb Garlic powder
    3 tb Onion powder
    6 tb Salt
    2 1/2 tb Dried oregano
    2 1/2 tb Dried thyme

    Combine all ingredients and store in an air-tight
    container.

    In a mixing bowl, season the flour with Rustic Rub. In
    another bowl, whisk the eggs and milk together. Season
    each side of the filets with Rustic Rub. Heat the oil in a
    saute pan.

    Dredge the filets in the flour. Dip each filet in the egg
    wash, letting any excess drip off, completely. Dredge the
    fish in the flour. When the oil is hot, but not smoking,
    pan fry the filets in the oil for 3-4 minutes on each
    side, or until golden brown. Remove from the oil and drain
    on a paper-lined plate. Season the filets with Rustic Rub.
    Discard the oil and wipe the pan clean with a paper towel.

    Return the pan to the heat and melt 2 tablespoons of the
    butter. When the butter starts to foam, add the pecans and
    stir for 1 1/2 minutes, or until lightly toasted. Stir in
    the parsley, garlic, Worcestershire sauce, lemon juice and
    cream, for about 15 seconds. Stir in the remaining butter.
    Season with salt and cayenne.

    Mound the potatoes in the center of the plate. Arrange the
    beans around the potatoes. Lay the fish directly on top of
    the potatoes. Spoon the sauce over the fish. Garnish with
    the peppers and chives.

    Yield: 4 servings
