How To Make baked crappie fillets

  • Step 1
    Spray 9 x 12 baking dish with Pam or other sprays
  • Step 2
    Layer fillets in dish, (can add more than 7 if cooking for more than a couple). Coat each fillet good with the Ranch Dressing. Again may take more than 1/2 cup of the dressing if more fillets added.
  • Step 3
    Sprinkle the garlic salt over the fillets.
  • Step 4
    Crush as many of the potato chips needed to completely cover the fillets..just need a light layer over them
  • Step 5
    Top with shredded cheddar cheese. I have found to keep the cheese from getting too cooked I will bake the recipe first then add cheese just last few minutes of baking time. Bake at 325 for approximately 15 min or until fish is tender.
