My husband and kids really loved the recipe. I didn't have the canned milk so I just marinated in regular milk for the day in the fridge. I also added some breadcrumbs to the top before I drizzled the butter. It was very good and easy to prepare.

Great tasting recipe! Just a couple of things, though: the amount of breading is enough for three preparations of this recipe (this isn't a guess, I actually used it three times ... I divided it up before I breaded the fish, 'cause you don't want to use breading that's touched the fish, obviously). I kept the extra breading in the fridge b/c of the parmesan. Also, you can use regular milk instead of evaporated, and much less melted butter than the recipe calls for (I think I used 1/4 cup). This recipe was great on red snapper as well! My little girls LOVE this recipe.

Wonderful! I've never had such moist, flavorful catfish-even my kids loved it! Definitely worth the wait to marinate!

The flavor and texture are both wonderful in this easy to prepare dish. I only had time to marinate the fish about 2 hours, but it still came out juicy and tender. Husband and son raved. I did whip up a litte lemon/butter sauce to serve on top, but it really wasn't needed.

This fish was excellent. I marinated my fish in whole milk overnite and I prepared the flour mixture in a ziplock bag so that it would be easy to coat the fish. I reduced the amount of flour to about 3/4 of a cup but left the other seasonings the same because I like seaoning. There was extra mixture leftover but the fish was so good I didnt care. I did reduce the amount of butter to about 1/4 and my fish browned very nicely. HIGHLY recommend, both my husband and little girl loved it.

Very good and tasty. As stated in a previous review a lot of flour mixture was left over, so I divided it up before I used it. After baking, the coating was slightly wet, so I broiled for 8-10 minutes. Squeeze some fresh lemon juice on top, and use tartar sauce for dipping.

quick and easy, I used whole milk and tweaked the spices because it sounded a little bland for my taste. The Italian spice give the fish a unique taste that is not everyday. I had a pound of catfish and this recipe was enough for the entire pound.

This recipe was great! I added a few dashes of Essence of Emeril to the breading after reading it could be bland. The flavor was awesome and my kids loved it! I even forgot to add the butter after breading the fish and it still tasted good! Can't wait to try it again...

not a big fan...didn't like the italian twist on the catfish. probably won't make again, although the breading made so much that I set half of it aside before flouring the fish.

About half the amount of this recipe worked for a pound of catfish nuggets. Very good flavor! Make sure to use a shallow baking dish so that your fish browns well. Ended up marinating in milk (2%) and for longer than instructed, but still turned out very well.
