I usually do a "cold pack"

light coat of cooking oil on the bottom of black pot
season the shite out of your catfish steaks

layer of diced onion, bellpepper, garlic
layer of fish steaks
sprinkle flour and pour half a can of tomato sauce on top of fish

repeat until you run out of fish steaks.

add 1/2 cup of water and a tablespoon of cream of mushroom sauce.

put on med. low and shake the pot every 15 minutes until steaks are cooked.

DON'T LET THE WOMEN AND CHILDREN SERVE FIRST OR THERE WILL BE BONES ALL OVER THE frickING POT.

In far south Louisiana it is more common to use Red Fish, generally served over rice. Tater salad for one thing as a side.

This is one I've done with snapper and redfish. It is different from the ones above. I like it kind of a thin tomato gravy if that makes sense. Not too thick. Use whatever firm fish you have. Also google redfish grill's courtbouillion and do it. Adjust both to your taste. End of story.

A nice courtbouillion

Iam going to give you a thing that will some "weird" ingredients but it is a seventy year plus recipe from the Laffy area. A dark peanut butter roux with the trinity plus garlic sautéed in it. Tomato paste added to that to "roast" the paste. A couple or three cans of diced tomatoes (puree with a stick blender) to that followed by homemade stock from the fish carcasses(veggie or chicken if not available), at that point the sauce will be a medium point in consistency. Add seasonings(Italian herbs) to taste and "Tonys/Slap Yo Mama" to taste, and now you are going to add two strange items to the mix. The first one is slices of lemon with the juice of a lemon too. The other is about ten to fifteen whole cloves. Let this mixture simmer with appropriate stirring for about two hours. Taste and adjust for flavor at this point and simmer another twenty minutes then add chunks of redfish and simmer for bout twenty minutes to let that cook. Serve over rice and garnish with slices of hard boiled egg maybe a tweak of lemon juice too.
