Cajun Baked Catfish Dijon image

Simple tasty baked fish recipe with that Cajun kick. Good for any flaky white fish fillets but catfish is the classic. Be careful how you mix the Dijon and the hot sauce, one overpowers the other or the two overpower the fish. I like to sprinkle some strong paprika (i.e. cayenne) at presentation for effect. Garnish with lemon wedges.

This recipe is a waste of time and money. The catfish was tough and the sauce was tasteless. I would not recommend this recipe to anyone.

I followed the recipe exactly, but the sauce didn't turn out as creamy as I expected. I would recommend using more butter or cream next time.

The recipe was easy to follow, but the catfish didn't turn out as crispy as I would have liked. I would recommend using a different breading next time.

The catfish was a bit dry, but the sauce was very good. I would recommend cooking the catfish for a shorter amount of time next time.

This recipe was a bit spicy for my taste, but it was still very good. I would recommend using less cayenne pepper next time.
