I'm not a big fan of catfish, but I tried this recipe and was pleasantly surprised. The fish was mild and flaky, and the sauce was flavorful without being too spicy. I would definitely make this again.

This recipe was easy to follow and the catfish turned out great! I used a little less cayenne pepper than the recipe called for, but it was still plenty spicy. I served it with coleslaw and hush puppies.

This Cajun catfish recipe is a keeper! The fish was crispy on the outside and flaky on the inside, and the sauce was flavorful and spicy. I served it with rice and green beans, and it was a hit with my family.
