This is one of our favorite recipes. It's quick, easy and delicious. Just serve with a side salad, biscuits and mixed fruit for dessert. We like it a lot for Christmas Eve. -Jan Wilkins, Blytheville, Arkansas

I'm not a fan of spicy food, so I omitted the Cajun seasoning. The catfish was still delicious, but I missed the extra kick.

This recipe is a little time-consuming, but it's worth the effort. The catfish is so flavorful and the pecan crust is to die for.

I'm allergic to pecans, so I used almonds instead. The catfish was still delicious, but I missed the nutty flavor of the pecans.

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover catfish. I made a few changes to the recipe, but the end result was still delicious.

I've made this recipe several times and it's always a crowd-pleaser. The catfish is always crispy on the outside and flaky on the inside.

This recipe was a little too complicated for me. I had to make a few substitutions and the end result wasn't as good as I had hoped.

The catfish was a little too spicy for my taste, but I'm sure others would enjoy it.
