What You'll Need

1 (6-ounce) can lump crabmeat, drained
1/2 cup Italian breadcrumbs
1 celery stalk, finely chopped
3 tablespoons mayonnaise
2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
1/2 teaspoon onion powder
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
4 (6-ounce) U.S. farm-raised catfish fillets (about 1-1/2 pounds)
2 tablespoons butter, melted
Paprika for sprinkling

What to Do

Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Coat a 9- x 13-inch baking dish with cooking spray.
In a medium bowl, combine crabmeat, breadcrumbs, celery, mayonnaise, Worcestershire sauce, onion powder, and pepper; mix well. This will be the stuffing.
Place catfish fillets on a flat surface. Spread crabmeat stuffing evenly over each fillet, patting it down gently and roll up jelly roll-style. Place seam side down in baking dish, drizzle with butter, and sprinkle with paprika.
Bake for 25-30 minutes until the fish is cooked through and the filling is piping hot.
