How To Make catfish with bacon stuffing

  • 1
    Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Coat a 9- x 13-inch baking dish with cooking spray. In a large skillet over medium heat, melt 6 tablespoons butter. Add celery, onion, carrot, garlic, salt, and pepper and saute 5 minutes, or until vegetables are soft.

    Remove from heat and stir in bread crumbs and bacon. Evenly spoon mixture onto fish fillets, roll up jelly roll-style, and place seam side down in prepared baking dish.
