Baked catfish?

Reverie

New member
Any simple recipes for baking catfish? I have two nice size filets, flour, panko
and regular breadcrumbs, buttter, Old Bay seasoning and a few other spices.
Anything I can do with them? I can't get out to the store before dinner so
that's whatI have to work with. How about Shake and Bake? I have chicken and
pork and also parmesan Shake and Bake. Poor planning on my part I know. But the
weather has been bad and I just couldn't go out shopping. (The fisg filets are
only two days old). Thanks.

Seriously, got any cornmeal? Just season it, butter it, and coat it with
cornmeal. The Old Bay is fine plus S&P. Mix the cornmeal with a little of
the Panko if you like the texture of it. If no cornmeal, just go with the
flour and Panko. 400F on a baking sheet until golden brown, turning halfway
through.

Combine cornmeal, flour, salt, cayenne and garlic powder. Coat catfish
with
mixture, shaking off excess. Add 1" layer of oil to a large skillet. Heat
to 350~. Add catfish in single layer and fry until golden brown, about 5
to
6 minutes depending on size. Remove and drain on paper towels. Source: The

cheese.

I have an interesting one that uses french dressing, the red sort not the
'orange kraft'. It's really more of a russian dressing. It was supposed to
be from a new low-carber who was thinking the lack of breading would be good
(the sugar in the dressing throws it off) but apparently it was good enough
that it's been repeated.

I'm not sure telling rfdjr1 to 'make a Vera Cruz' sauce will help. she/he
was looking for ideas for catfish and listed all the classic basics but was
probably not quite sure how to adjust (most recipes fry and the request was
for oven use).

I'll be curious to see which ones were actually used. Apparently of the
posted list, it was narrowed to 2. They were mostly very similar with minor
adjustments in cooking style or side ingredients. Just 7 of them (didn want
to swamp them!)

Okay, I took about a cup of panko, a half cup of parmesan cheese, salt, pepper
and Old Bay and mixed them up. Egg wash first, then the panko mix and into the
over at 375 for about 25 minutes. Tasted great but personally, I would have
liked the fish a little drier than it was. It was cooked but really moist. Maybe
that'sthe right way to eat it but I would have liked drier. Thanks again for the
help.

The one thing I've learned over the years is when a complete unknown
comes in like that, they have more at their fingertips because
everything gets tweaked and I wonder why they didn't say "that" before
(if they aren't a one post wonder).

I have been baking mine in butter, garlic, basil, a little cayenne,
salt & pepper(and sometimes a little white or pink wine) in a 400
degree oven about 20 min or til the fish is flaky, and not translucent
in the middle. And the stainless pan is on a pizza stone. The first
time it was on the stone was an accident, but left the stone in after
that because the fish was fabulous. We've also done it the same way
on the grill for a little smokiness. Cover bottom outside of pan with
alum foil to avoid a cleanup mess.

Good choice! For 'dryer' you may want next time to 'panfry' it a little
first in butter and olive oil then shift it to the oven for finishing (if
you want oven baked). You may be used to more crispy crust which will
develop better that way.
