Adapted from Craig Claiborne's Southern Cooking. This is also good when made with other kinds of fish. Don't try to fry them; they'll burn.
Ingredients:
6 catfish fillets
1/2 cup parmesan cheese, preferably freshly grated
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
salt
pepper
1 teaspoon paprika
1 egg, lightly beaten
1 tablespoon milk
1/2 cup butter, melted
1/4 cup sliced almonds (optional)
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350°F.
2. Wipe fish dry.
3. Combine cheese, flour, salt, pepper and paprika in a shallow dish.
4. Combine egg and milk in a shallow dish.
5. Dip fish in egg mixture, then in flour mixture, turning to coat.
6. Arrange in a single layer in a baking dish.
7. Pour the butter over the fish.
8. Top with the almonds, if using.
9. Bake for about 20 minutes, until fish is cooked through.
