This oven-fried catfish 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.

Ingredients

  • 0.5 cups yellow cornmeal
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 0.5 teaspoons celery seed
  • 0.5 teaspoons onion powder
  • 0.5 teaspoons garlic powder
  • 0.5 teaspoons ground black pepper
  • 1.5 pounds catfish fillets
  • 0.5 cups skim milk
  • cooking spray

Instructions

  1. 1

    Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil; coat with cooking spray.

  2. 2

    Whisk cornmeal, paprika, thyme, salt, celery seed, onion powder, garlic powder, and black pepper together in a shallow dish. Dip catfish fillets in milk. Press into cornmeal mixture and coat liberally; place on the prepared baking sheet. Coat tops of fillets with cooking spray until wet.

  3. 3

    Bake in the preheated oven until fillets easily flake with a fork, about 15 minutes.
