Just wanted to share a recipe that I saw on the Southern Living website. When I saw catfish on sale for $2.99 per lb, I figured it was time to try it. This was DELICIOUS and very simple too - I can't wait to serve it to fish-loving friends. I made extra and we had the rest for dinner tonight. It was just as good the next day, reheated in the microwave.
