Different Fried Fish
"This fish is made special and different because it has a touch of ketchup in the biscuit mix coating. Cooking time is fairly active, but short, as you must watch and turn the fish."

Good fish but my topping fell off - however this may have been my fault using the wrong type of fish - I used catfish that was on the thick side - I think this will work a lot better with flounder or sole fillets. Thanks for sharing! -
This came out very nicely and my husband liked it alot! It was easy and quick, my type of recipe! Thanks Trisha!
