Ingredients
  • Catfish fillets (5-7 oz) or other fish fillets
  • Cornmeal (Stoneground or course ground preferred)
  • Granulated garlic
  • Salt and Black Pepper

Directions
  1. Season cornmeal with granulaed garlic, salt and pepper to taste.
  2. Fish should be slightly damp, but not wet.
  3. Dredge fish in cornmeal and press meal into fish.
  4. Place on greased wire rack and place on baking pan
  5. Bake at 375 until golden brown and fish flakes, about 20 minutes.
  6. Note: The recipe for real Fried Catish is posted on my page. This recipe was requested by a cooking friend who does not eat fried foods. Enjoy!
  7. Note: Farm-raised catfish has a white, mild and delicate flavor due to the fact that it is raised in special ponds and fed a diet of grains. The entire pond is netted and kept alive until processing time. From live to frozen fillets takes just minutes. Thus, no fishy taste.

I made this and it is delicious. I couldn't tell that it wasn't real fried. Thanks!


I bookmarked this one to try. With three grandkids constantly running through the kitchen to get out the back door I don't like the idea of doing alot of frying on the stove as I'm afraid that they'll get burned.


This sounds good. I'm gonna try it next time.


Cut your grease.


Thanks chef this has to be done.


The fish turn out very good didn't miss the grease. Made oven fries to go with. Thanks


I'm going to give this one a try. Thanks!


Thanks for this fantastic recipe
I really have to try this


Mmmmmm, I am a southern girl, and my grandaddy always fished for catfish, in my opinion, theres nothing better than good ol' fried catfish. This looks like a great healthier alternative. Thanks for sharing, can't wait to try.


Love catfish - well...fillets. MAde the mistake once of ordering whole. Needless to say, couldn't even eat it, lol!!


Thanks Chef, I need a healthier alternative to one of my summer favorites!
