Excellent catfish recipe

This shows how to make a very good catfish recipe. Basic, simple and easy, yet true to the recipe. For added flavor, I would have to say that my personal style is adding just a few herbs here and there like oregano or parsley, and to make things more interesting, tabasco sauce. Well done instructions.
