Method

For the sauce, stir mayonnaise, sour cream, jalapeño peppers, lemon juice, salt, pepper and cayenne together in a small bowl. Cover and refrigerate until ready to serve.

For the poppers, preheat oven to 375°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

In a shallow bowl, whisk together egg and milk. Combine breadcrumbs, salt, Cajun seasoning and cayenne in a shallow bowl.

Dip catfish pieces in egg mixture. Dredge in breadcrumbs, then set catfish pieces on prepared baking sheet and lightly spray with olive oil.
