Sylvia Wood's Sassy Catfish Recipe - Sylvia Woods is perhaps New York's most famous soul food chef. In fact, she's been crowned the "queen of soul food," a cuisine that is not generally known for being low calorie.
The Zagat New York City restaurant survey said that the food at Wood's Harlem restaurant is tasty and comforting, but warned: "Don't tell your doctor what you ate."
That's all changed. Woods has joined forces with Splenda and concocted some delicious, yet light treats.
Sylvia's Sassy Catfish
Makes 4 servings
Preparation time: 10 min. Cooking time: 12 min.
½ cup Splenda No Calorie Sweetener, granular

½ cup diced onion
½ cup diced green bell pepper
2 lemons sliced

½ teaspoon salt

Combine Splenda granular, tomato puree, Sylvia's Hot Sauce, water, celery, onion, green bell pepper and lemons in a large saucepan. Bring to a boil over medium heat, stirring constantly; reduce heat and simmer five to 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
