Love, love, LOVE this recipe! It turns boring catfish into a delicious meal! I used cut the amount of cayenne pepper, dill, and thyme in half, but kept the rest of the spices the same. It was perfect! Also, I didn't need all of the butter... next time I'd say only 3 tbsp. for 4 fillets. still, this recipe is a winner! It's great if you serve it with noodles or rice to balance out the spiciness.

My husband is the catfish lover and the more savory or spicy I can make it is best. This was a good recipe and you can tune up or down the heat.

The kiddo and hubby really liked it. I used pace since I did not have the diced tomatoes and chili peppers. I sprinkled the seasoning on instead of dipping the fish in because I didn't want to dirty another dish.

I loved this, and would have given it 5 starts, but I think I would not have liked it if I had used all the cayenne. I used a scant bit, but added some Old Bay seasoning in its place. As I did it, it was spicy and had heat, but wasn't overpowering.

Super easy and very tasty! I simply drizzled the fish with olicve oil then sprinkled the seasonings on top. I served it with rice and beans, and ended up having the leftovers in flour tortillas. Good stuff! Thanks, Nick!

Terrific recipie. I did a lot ofimprovising for items I did not have but was truly amazed at how terrific it turned out. I'll tell you my changes. 1) didn't have dill so I used some juice from a bottle of salad olives. 2) ni thyme so I used some itallian sesoning 3) to big a can of diced tomatoes (I buy the big cans for when I make my spagehetti sauce) so I used cans of tomatoe sauce and added 2 teaspoons of salsa for chips for each 10 oz can used. 4) I opened a can of green chile peppers and added 2 teaspoons of to the tomate sauce mixture. 5) I then cut up some fresh vidallia onion and green peppers and added it to the t sauce mixture. 6) I added some fresh garden green beans that were steamed first then added to the mixture. 7) I added a dash of olive oil for flavor. 8) after following the fish directions I noticed that there really wasn't enough seasoning mixture to cover both sides so I sprinkled the fish with more garlic powder then onion powder, adobo seasoning. 9) trying to add my own signature I topped it off with some fresh grated cheese. 10) I cooked it to half the recipie time then added the the tomatoe mixture and continued to bake the second half -=- enjoy - I did

I was really skeptical about this recipe, but I was very pleased with the end result. I more than doubled the spices plus added a few of my own as well as a few tsp of flour, but the end result was fabulous.

Great recipe. I served garlic broccoli and brown rice with it. I have shared the recipe with other and will definitely serve it again.

I'm sorry, neither my husband or myself enjoyed this dish at all. It was easy to prepare, but it didn't seem like there was enough seasoning to coat the fish. The directions say to put the fish in the seasoning dish; I had to literally take pinches of the seasoning and sprinkle it on the fish to make it last. And the fish ended up being way, way, way too spicy. My husband and I enjoy spicy food, and we had to scrape the tomatoes and the spices off the fish to make them edible. It was like fire in our mouths. I won't be making this again.
