Crunchy Oven Fried Fish

This worked perfectly as advertised. The cooking time is spot on. For my fish I chose farm raised catfish which was filleted. The pound of fish made 6 good size pieces, for my money this was a serves six recipe as long as you have a nice selection of sides. The fresh catfish I got at Publix was $5.00/lb which isn't terrible.

I made my bread crumbs from some stale sour dough bread I had. In leu of buttermilk I substituted 1/4 cup of sour cream as that was what I had. The only addition I made to the seasoning was some salt.

I left the fish to soak in the egg mixture for about 30 minutes while I was visiting with the folks. I pulled one piece of fish at a time out and spooned the crumbs over the fish pressing in a bit rather than just dredging. I used baking parchment instead of oiling the pan. In the picture I posted that is what made the design that looks a bit like grill marks. With about 10 minutes to go on the cook time, I flipped the fish over to finish it off.

I've been chasing various oven baked recipes for a long time. The chase is over. This is what I'll use from now on for crunch oven fried fish. This recipe is perfectly named. Thank you Jo_Jo_BA!
