Grilled Catfish Recipe

• • 2 pounds catfish fillets
• • 1 tablespoon chopped onion
• • 1/2 teaspoon salt
• • 1 teaspoon dried parsley
• • 1/4 teaspoon pepper
• • 1 teaspoon ground thyme
• • 1 teaspoon lemon juice
• • 1/2 teaspoon salt
• • 1 cup fresh bread crumbs
• • 1/4 teaspoon pepper
• • 3 tablespoons cream cheese
• • Bacon
• • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
• • Lemon slices
• • 1 tablespoon chopped celery
• • Pimiento strips

With 1/2 teaspoon of salt and 1/4 teaspoon of pepper, season the fillets. Sprinkle over the catfish 1 teaspoon lemon juice. Combine bread crumbs, cream cheese, 1 teaspoon lemon juice, celery, onion, parsley, thyme, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper.

Divide the stuffing mixture into portions and place 1 portion of stuffing at one end of each catfish fillet. Roll the catfish fillet around the stuffing. Fry bacon until cooked, but not crisp and wrap 2 slices of bacon around each catfish fillet; secure with a toothpick.

Place catfish rolls in a lightly greased grill. Grill at 350 degrees for 10 to 15 minutes or until fish flakes easily with a fork. Turn once.

Remove toothpicks before serving. Garnish with lemon slices and pimiento strips.
