  • 4 Catfish fillets
  • 3 tb Lemon juice
  • 3 tb Soy sauce
  • 3 tb Vegetable oil
  • 1 c Thinly sliced bell pepper;

Cut fillets into bite-size pieces.

minutes. Add red pepper, celery, snow peas and mushrooms. Stir-fry for 2

Quickly return vegetables to wok. Stir cornstarch mixture till smooth and
pour into wok. Cook and stir until slightly thickened, about 2 minutes.
Serve over hot rice. Yields 4 servings.
