Ingredients

Step cooking

Preparatory stage

1. Defrost catfish steaks and pat with paper towels to remove excess moisture.
   
2. Squeeze the juice of half a lemon into a glass. Catfish is a fish that loses its shape when cooked. To avoid this, pour steaks with lemon juice from half a lemon. Besides the fact that lemon juice is a marinade, it does not allow catfish to fall apart. Leave the catfish in this marinade for a few minutes. We clean and wash 2-3 cloves of garlic and 3 onions.
   

Marinade preparation

1. Pour 200 g of sour cream into a bowl. Squeeze the garlic through the press (the amount of garlic can be changed at your discretion). Add a couple of tablespoons of soy sauce.
   
2. Add black pepper, salt and dried garlic to taste. Mix with a spoon and the marinade is ready.
   

Steak roasting

1. Cut the onion into half rings (if the onion is small, oblong, then you can cut into rings). We cover the baking sheet with baking paper and put the onion on it. Thus, we get a kind of pillow for steaks. It is not only useful, but also convenient. In addition, onion adds flavor.
   
2. We put the fish in a bowl with marinade so that it is marinated for several minutes.
   
3. Meanwhile, preheat the oven without convection to 230 degrees. We lay out the pieces of fish in the marinade on an onion pad. The remains of the marinade are poured on top.
   
4. To create a crisp, sprinkle steaks with breadcrumbs (2-3 tbsp. L.). The dish is sent to the oven for 40 minutes.
