Ingredients
1/4 cup chopped onion
1/8 cup chopped celery
1/8 cup chopped green bell pepper
3 tablespoons margarine, plus 1 tablespoon
1 pound catfish fillets, cut into chunks
1/2 teaspoon liquid crab boil
8 ounces cream cheese
2 tablespoons ketchup
1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley leaves
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1/2 cup Italian bread crumbs
1 loaf French bread
1 1/2 cups grated mixed Cheddar and mozzarella
Directions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
- Saute the onion, celery, and pepper with 3 tablespoons of the margarine. When wilted, add the catfish chunks and the remaining 1 tablespoon margarine together with liquid crab boil and mix well. As catfish cooks, break up fish with a cooking spoon. Set catfish mixture aside.
- In a microwave oven, melt cream cheese on HIGH for 1 minute. Add ketchup, parsley, and pepper and mix well. Fold cream cheese mixture into catfish mixture and add Italian bread crumbs.
- Microwave mixture on HIGH for 8 minutes, stirring once halfway through cooking. Cut French bread lengthwise. Place on cookie sheet, sliced side up. Spread catfish mixture on each length of bread. Sprinkle with mozzarella and cheddar mixture.
- Bake for 10 minutes, or until cheese is melted and bubbly. Cut into individual slices. Serve and enjoy!
