Easy Low-Fat Oven Fried Catfish

The catfish has a nice crunchy coating, just as good as pan-fried without all the greasiness! I like to serve this with Southern dishes like baked sweet potatoes and collard greens.

This catfish was flavorful and the coating was crispy like classic fried fish but without the grease. The only issue was that the coating wanted to fall off when I flipped it halfway through. It still tasted great though and I will definitely make this again!

    I used tilapia fillets instead of catfish. This was really good, but not as crispy as I would have liked. I will make again soon.

    Very good! I was using more fillets, so I didn't really measure the fish coating or egg substitute--just eyeballed what I thought I would need. I did spray the tops of the fillets with olive oil before turning them over partway through baking. Thanks for posting!

    THIS WAS FABULOUS!!! I thoroughly enjoyed this fish, and I do plan to make it again in the near future. The flavor is so good, and I cant believe that my family enjoyed it more than fried fish!!! I used Pro Bass (i think thats the name) seasoned fish coating, and creole seasoning Thanks for this marvelous recipe!!!
