Steps:
- Put oil in a skillet until it is halfway up or you can use a deep fryer, a deep fryer is actually best for these. Heat until hot or if using skillet use medium high heat.
- In a large bowl beat egg with a fork, add buttermilk to it. Beat again to incorporate.
- In another big bowl put cornmeal and seasonings to taste.
- Rinse nuggets and dip into milk mixture, depending on how many you have you could probably fit them all in at one time.
- Take a few out of the milk and dip in to the cornmeal, roll around to get it coated good, then put into oil.
- If using skillet put them in until skillet is full. fry 3 minutes, turn and fry another 2-3 minutes. If using a deep fryer fry 5 minutes, about halfway through stir them around to break up any that might have clumped together. They are done when golden brown and flake easily with a fork.

Steps:
- In a bowl, add the 2 cups milk and a heavy pinch of salt. Whisk to dissolve and add the fish chunks. Allow to soak at room temperature for 30 minutes.
- Set up the dredging station: In the first bowl, add 1 cup flour. In the second bowl, whisk the eggs and add the remaining 2 tablespoons milk. In the third bowl, add the remaining 1 cup flour, the cornmeal, sugar and a pinch of salt followed by a few grinds of pepper.
- In a frying pan with straight sides, add enough oil to fill 1-inch deep. Heat until the oil begins to swirl and the handle of a wooden spoon begins to sizzle as soon as it hits the oil. The oil will be about 350 degrees F.
- Remove the fish from the milk in batches of 6 to 8 chunks. Shake the excess milk off the fish. Dredge in the flour, then the egg wash and then in the flour and cornmeal mixture. Add the batch to the oil, making sure to not overcrowd the pan and bring down the temperature. Fry, flipping once if needed, until a light golden brown and cooked through, about 6 minutes. Remove to a paper towel-lined plate and season with a sprinkle of salt. Repeat until all the fish chunks are done.
- In a small bowl, add the hot sauce and sift the sugar on top. Gently stir together. Drizzle over the nuggets or dunk them in the sauce.

KEN'S BEER BATTER FRIED CATFISH
DH loves to fish, and when he brings home a "catch", this is the first recipe we go to, of coarse I have to quick grab the 1/2 cup of beer before he gets to it. You can add or delete the seasonings as your taste sees fit,Soaking in buttermilk, is the key to kicking the "fishy" taste, but this is an optional step. The original recipe comes from Ryan Newman. Prep time does not include chill time.

Steps:
- Pour oil into deep pot, Dutch oven or deep fryer, filling no more than 3/4 full. Heat on medium-high heat to 375°F.
- Mix buttermilk, egg, Creole Mustard, Hot Sauce, OLD BAY and black pepper in medium bowl. Place Fish Fri in separate shallow dish. Dip fish in buttermilk mixture, then dip in Fish Fri to coat.
- Working in batches as needed, fry catfish nuggets in hot oil about 4 to 6 minutes or until golden brown. Drain on paper towels. Serve with additional Cajun Hot Sauce or Creole Mustard for Dipping. Chef Millie's Charcuterie Tips:•When plating a charcuterie board, you want to plate the star of the show in the middle-that's our catfish nuggets!-because we want people to eat it while it's hot. You probably won't have to worry about re-heating anything because McCormick seasonings add so much flavor, everything will be devoured before any reheating is necessary. •You can turn any soul food staple into a small bite perfect for a charcuterie board - whether it's collard greens you turn into spring rolls, mac-n-cheese into fried gooey nuggets of goodness, or banana pudding made into individual pie bites. •Adding ready-made sauces to the board for dipping allows guests to create their own unique combos in every bite. Mini ramekins with an assortment of condiments like Stubb's® Bar-B-Q Sauce, Zatarain's® Creole Mustard, or even French's® Mustard can really jazz up the board.

- Heat 1/2 the butter in a large skillet over high heat, and fry 2 of the fillets for about 3 minutes on each side, or until the fish flakes easily when tested with a fork.
- Transfer the fillets to a serving platter and keep warm. Repeat with remaining butter and fillets. Serve immediately, garnished with lemon wedges.

TUNISIAN-STYLE CATFISH NUGGETS
This is a great way to dress up an inexpensive fish and is reminiscent of a Tunisian-style fish preparation. Fried catfish is simmered in a tomato-based sauce with anise seed, chopped fresh lemon, and olives, and served over rice or couscous. You may substitute any other fish if desired. This simple preparation makes it the 'cat's meow'!

Mix in 1 cup water, salt and pepper, cayenne pepper, brown sugar, and olives. Bring the sauce to a boil and simmer for 20 minutes. Stir in more water if the sauce gets too thick.
