Instructions

  1. Combine cornmeal, flour, Old Bay, and garlic in a large, shallow dish. Whisk buttermilk, Tabasco, salt, and cayenne together in a nonreactive large, shallow dish.

  2. Heat 1 1/2 tablespoons oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Blot catfish fillets using paper towels, and dip each fillet into the buttermilk mixture. Dredge both sides of the fillets in the cornmeal mixture. Shake off excess breading. Fry the fillets two at a time until golden brown, turning once — about 8 to 10 minutes.

  3. Spread 2 tablespoons tartar sauce onto French loaf halves. Layer with lettuce and tomato slices. Transfer cooked fillets onto French rolls. Repeat with remaining fillets. Serve immediately. Nutritional information is based on 1/2 sandwich.

Why this Catfish Po' Boy works for PCOS

Lunch is where most PCOS meal plans either succeed or collapse. A meal like this Catfish Po' Boy that combines adequate protein, fibre-rich carbs, and fat keeps blood sugar stable for the rest of the workday and reduces the late-afternoon energy crash that drives sugar cravings around 3-4pm.
