catfish with broccoli and pecans


Catfish drenched and dredged, with steamed broccoli and pecans. Topped with a simple roux velouté sauce made with frozen chicken broth cubes and the drench milk used for the fish, along with more of the same seasoning added to the dredge. Wouldn't do to waste now, would it? Plus some kind of little knob of cheese, I have no idea what it was, the label is gone, whatever it was, it's good. The seasoning was some kind of brown powder in a circular tin from Spice Boys marked simply HOT. It's not. Those Spice Boys, their patronage is all Norteamericanos, they don't know the meaning of hot. The pecans were toasted separately because that's what you do to get their internal oil going or else they'd be raw NTTAWWT.
