My husband told me to give this recipe five stars! I followed the recipe exactly except for a couple of substitutions: instead of milk (I was out) I used a mixture of heavy cream and water (2 parts water, three parts heavy cream), instead of chicken broth (I was out of that too) I mixed some water and chicken flavored Top Ramen mix together and it turned out great. I used extra sharp, aged cheddar cheese which gave it a nice flavor. I also added a pinch of Tony's Cajun seasoning and topped the whole thing off with paprika. Really delicious, especially if you have some extra catfish and don't know what to do with it.

This is recipe is so simple and delicious.. I followed the recipe's instructions ALMOST exactly (I decided to use a 1/2 tsp of salt instead of celery salt), and it turned out great! The only thing I'd do differently next time is to add more cheese though. Other than that, my family and friends loved it!

That's a really delicious recipe and very easy to make. I used canned salmon instead of the catfish and served it with rice. Thanks for sharing this recipe!

Delicious as written - I made a few changes, some worked, some didn't. I recommend adding a splash of hot sauce. To make a healthier version, use skim milk and reduce cheese to 1 cup, and increase veggies. Serve with sourdough bread for a hearty lunch!

This recipe was great! It will serve as a great basic chowder recipe that you can improvise with. I had fresh tilapia instead of catfish and used that and just added some fresh herbs I had on hand. Definitely consider putting whatever fish/ shellfish is on special or looks the feshest at the seafood counter/ fishmonger into this chowder recipe and you can be sure it will come out fabulous!

Mixed this recipe with the Shrimp Chowder recipe (no catfish) for the best cheesy chowder ever.

Boy howdy, this is a great recipe! My husband loves fishing, and he's always bringing home catfish. I'm so glad that we have a new recipe for it! I made a few modifications.. instead of celery salt and salt, I used Tony Chachere's. Also, I'm watching my diet right now, so I cut the potatoes and carrots and added zucchini and squash instead. I tried it without cheese and it was delicious, but with cheese is definitely better! This one is a keeper!

Sooo good! I made lots of changes, but tried the base recipe and it was very good! It definitely needed some seasoning, I used cajun seasoning and Old Bay and oregano. I didn't have enough fish (used tilapia) so I supplemented some shrimp. Added some crumbled turkey bacon to the top. Yummmm!

Very unexpected! Not fishy at all. I tried it as written and decided to add a few things that were suggested after tasting although it was nice unchanged. I added garlic, thyme, and basil (tsp increments and tasted).

Very Good and Easy! My husband thinks catfish should only be fried or a stew. He approved this one. Added 1t. cajun seasoning for a kick.

WOW!! I made this chowder for my family and there weren't any leftovers. My daughter has already requested it again. My husband, who doesn't like fish, said he wants to eat this again. It's inexpensive to make and very filling.

This was very good;however,the family and I decided that we like ham and potato chowder better. The ham seems to flavor the entire soup better, versus this recipe you only taste the catfish when you actually take a bite of it.

I have never had fish chowder before. All of my kids said it was great! I did saute the celery with the onions, and didnt add all the salt it called for. I used tilapia instead of catfish...it is a little heathier. I also used fat free chedder cheese and light butter to cut some calories. For the kids I put it on a bed of brown rice for bulk to fill them up and added a few chips for dipping.(a kid thing) All in all, great recipe!

not a really fan of catfish but had some that I needed to use. This is a great recipe because you can't really tell it is catfish. I did saute the celery and carrots with the onions just to soften them up. But followed everything else.

My 10 yr old Son who does not eat onions, potatoes, carrots or celery, thuroughly enjoyed the cheesy catfish chowder. I figure if it gets him eating veggies, it must be a great recipe. I thought it was a fantasticly easy, yummy and fast chowder that the whole family enjoyed.
