Wrapped Farm-raised Catfish With Cream Cheese Stuffing Recipe

	Notyourmomma / All my dishes 2 years, 1 month ago I love this dish. The filling is so versatile I use it in chicken fillets and cook it the same way. But it was written for catfish originally and I'm all for making fish palatable for my family. Once you put bacon on it, my hubby will eat it. Prep:10m Cook:25m Servings:4	Notyourmomm

My husband loves bacon as well. If I wore bacon perfume he wouldn't leave me alone! I have to buy bacon like crazy for him to eat when he wants. This will be awesome for our catfish we catch. I have tons in the freezer right now that need to be ate!

I sent this recipe to my sister and she made it yesterday. She said it had been a long time since she had made something that was this good! Her only changes were she added some finely chopped shrimp to the stuffing. This rates a 5!!

If you leave out the bread crumbs or substitute crumbled pork rinds in the filling this would qualify for low carb fare, fancy enough for company. Another tip is lemon infused oil instead of lemon juice, fewer carbs that way.
