    We always have to try a recipe as written first time around...LOVED this recipe. However, we're not okra fans either so the second time making this I omitted it and added shrimp and a splash of white wine. The flavors are wonderful!

    I doubled the recipe, put in a little less catfish and added shrimp as well as a little extra cajun seasoning. I also added 5 large diced cloves of garlic. It came out very tasty and my family loved it. I would definitely make this meal again!
