Tips:
- Choose the freshest catfish fillets available. Look for fillets that are firm and have a mild, sweet smell. Avoid fillets that are slimy or have a strong odor.
- Use a variety of seasonings to flavor the catfish. Garlic, paprika, onion powder, and cayenne pepper are all good choices. You can also add fresh herbs, such as thyme or oregano, for extra flavor.
- Be careful not to overcook the catfish. Catfish is a delicate fish that can easily become dry and overcooked. Cook the fillets until they are just opaque in the center, about 4-5 minutes per side.
- Serve the catfish immediately with your favorite sides. Baked catfish pairs well with roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, or a simple salad.

Baked garlic catfish is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. The catfish is tender and flaky, and the garlic butter sauce is flavorful and rich. This dish is sure to please everyone at your table.
