This works well with Talipia also. I didn't have bread to make fresh crumbs from once and used packaged crumbs but I much prefer the fresh crumbs. If you don't have fresh herbs, use half the amounts listed of dried herbs (but fresh is best).

This recipe is a keeper! The catfish was crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. The spicy butter sauce was the perfect complement to the fish.
