  • Season the catfish well: Before roasting, season the catfish fillets with a mixture of salt, pepper, and other spices. This will help to enhance the flavor of the fish.
  • Roast the catfish at a high temperature: Roasting the catfish at a high temperature will help to create a crispy exterior and a tender interior. Aim for a temperature of 400°F (200°C) or higher.
