Excellent recipe! I have made this two times now. The 1st time I couldn't find Cream of Shrimp soup so I used Cream of Mushroom and it was still good. If I used Mushroom again I would use 1 can and some Half & Half. Soup mixture was very thick. I think it depends on which brand you use. The 2nd time I used Cream of Shrimp and BOY was it worth it. It was absolutely amazing. Use the Cream of Shrimp if you can find it. Will be using this recipe for a long time.

Awesome dish! Cooked this for our super bowl party last night and it was gone in an instant. I used catfish nuggets for an easy appetizer-like dish. This will be a regular in our house.

This was good. I did reduce the amount of butter in the recipe. The only suggestion the husband made was that he thought it would be better with tilapia...and I happen to agree. I think that catfish has too much flavor and it kind of drowns it out a bit. We will definately use again, but will probably try with tilapia. Thanks for the post.

Well, being from Baton Rouge the word "cajun" caught my interest so I had to try this. Just had it tonight and found it delicious. The fish is mouth-watering tender and the sauce very good. I did have to make a few slight adjustments. I am not crazy about blackened seasoning so substitues Tony Cacheres Creole Seasoning. Added some extra mushrooms and some half n half to add some richness and cut back some of the salt. Cream of shrimp can be a little salty and I found that this combination helped eliminate that. Overall a very good dish. Thanks for the recipe.

This was absolutely fabulous! I made it for my husband and he said it reminded him of something he'd get at the restaurant Pappadeaux. I would probably not add as much butter next time but I have to admit it was yummy just the way it was. I used precooked frozen shrimp and it worked just great.

My family (none of which are huge seafood fans) LOVED this. They kept talking about dinner long after the dishes were washed and put away. I subbed Tilapia, added lemon pepper to sauce, used cooked cocktail shrimp (added just b4 baking) and about 1/2 the butter. If no shrimp at hand, xtra mushrooms would be great. Only baked for 20 minutes. Great over plain white rice. A real keeper!

This recipe was great and I will definitely make it again. However, next time I will use half the butter. I served the dish over rice.

My very picky husband had seconds and asked me to make it again less than a week later. I used cilantro instead of parsely and cream of mushroom instead of cream of shrimp. I also added a tiny bit of half&half for richness. I agree it was a tad salty but overall an excellant recipe. Thanks!

My husband loved this recipe and went back for seconds! For my seasoning, I used Garlic Pepper Blend and lightly used Seasoning Salt since others said it was too salty in the end. Campbell's Soup makes the Cream of Shrimp Soup. I'm not sure if it's sold in all 50 states or not. I read where some people had problems finding it. I used dried parsley since I already had it. And I cooked fish in olive oil since a stick of butter for the recipe seemed like a bit much. Although I did use 4 tbl spool to saute the mushrooms, parsley, green onions and shrimp. I served it over brown rice and it came out great. My husband gave me a double A+ for presentation as well. Great recipe!!!

My boyfriend and I absolutely adored this! Oh goodness it was sooooo good over herb rice! YUMMY!!!!! scaled down to four, didn't have cajun blackened seasoning so improvised by using regular cajun seasoning, a pinch each of thyme, garlic powder, paprika, onion powder, black and white pepper. did use cream of shrimp soup. It doesn't get much better than this. Next time i might add a bit more spice, leave out the catfish and add crab and. . . . it is so GOOD! thank you thank you thank you Lu Post!
