Catfish With Creole Sauce

4 7-ounce Catfish fillets
Peanut oil for lubricating fish and greasing grill
˝ teaspoon Garlic powder
1 teaspoon Paprika
Pepper to taste

     Brush catfish fillets with oil and sprinkle with seasonings.  Arrange fish on prepared grill.  Cook for 3 minutes, brush with oil, and turn.  Continue cooking until fish begins to flake easily when tested with a fork, 2-4 minutes, depending on the size of the fish.  Arrange catfish on heated platter and serve with hot Creole Sauce.

     Heat butter in medium saucepan, and add garlic, onion, celery and bell pepper.
