Cajun seasoning, a blend of spices and flavorings that's traditionally used to prepare foods such as gumo and jambalaya, adds an inviting bite to this catfish
Piquant sauce is spicy and we add cayenne pepper to this dish. It starts with a roux and the holy trinity (onions, bell peppers and celery) of Cajun cooking. Serve over rice.
This can be either baked or deep fried. I was experimenting with ingredients I had on hand and this is what I came up with, so its a original recipe of my own.
Being a southerner with a bunch of fishermen in my family, we usually have an abundance of catfish in the freezer. I decided if tilapia could be parmesan encrusted, so could catfish. My mom and I prefer...
Simple tasty baked fish recipe with that Cajun kick. Good for any flaky white fish fillets but catfish is the classic. Be careful how you mix the Dijon and the hot sauce, one overpowers the other or the...
This is an amazing sauce; easy to throw together and because this recipe is for the microwave, you will have tender, flaky fish in a matter of minutes.
Mulate's restaurant in New, Orleans takes a novel approach with jambalaya, utilizing catfish as the main ingredient. The recipe is quite easy. Try this out for your next Mardi Gras party, and you will...
Something new to do with catfish besides deep frying it! A yummy blend of tomatoes and italian seasonings make this a mild fish dish. Great if you don't care for that sometimes overpowering catfish taste....
This recipe works great with any firm, white fish. I recommend red snapper fillets, grouper fillets, or amberjack for saltwater fish. Catfish or tilapia for freshwater fish. The cooktime specified is for...
This was distributed at my WW meeting this evening and I came to the site fully expecting that it had been posted and I could save it to one of my cookbooks. Lo and behold, I am the first and while I have...
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...
This is from a local cajun restaurant called Jazz. It's probably my favorite dish that they serve. Notice that both margarine and butter are used - the margarine so that it can be used at a higher temp...
This is a recipe that I obtained from a very good Cajun friend who is a native of Lafayette, Louisiana. His family adopted me (friendly) many years ago and we have swapped Cajun and Creole recipes through...

My husband loves the taste of Ranch tortilla chips. You don't have to use Ranch flavored tortilla chips. Play with different flavors and see what you like best! This is also healthier since you bake it,...

Here's a wonderful recipe from the Catfish Institute! I know... you can't get much better than fried catfish. But, if you're wanting something different, or maybe you're trying to cut back on the fried...
My mom once owned a stake in a catfish farm called Delta Pride. It stalled and sputtered and eventually went belly-up (excuse the pun). But we did get some great catfish recipes along the way, like this...
When you find a spice mixture you like, double or triple the recipe, and save the extra to use with other seafood (such as shrimp), chicken, pork, or even potatoes.
This is a great, quick meal that's wonderful for doing after work. Any white fish fillet will work with this recipe and when you can get good, summery, red tomatoes you can sub them for the canned. I serve...
This soup is like the hot and tangy Tom Yum soup served in Thai restaurants. If your grocer doesn't carry lemongrass, use 1/2 tsp finely grated lemon rind. Make ahead and let cool for 30 minutes. Refrigerate...
This recipe is a great alternative to pan-fried catfish. A combination of cornmeal and a variety of spices gives this recipe a savory kick in less than 30 minutes.
Everyone laughs at me because I think hospital food is good. Well, it's good if it's hot and it really depends on what it is. This is one of my favorite things the hospital fixes. I was surprised in the...
From "Faster, I'm Starving; 100 Dishes in 25 Minutes or Less" by Kevin and Nancy Mills. This is a new cookbook I found at my library and I wanted to post this before I return the book. The blurb in the...
This works with almost any fish, and it's so easy! Try it on a big bed of spinach, or with a gratin of zucchini, or with a fresh, spicy tomato salsa and a salad!
