  3. Process the onion rings in a blender or food processor until finely crushed and put on a plate. Dip fillets in sour cream mixture, then in crushed onion rings to coat. Place fish in an ungreased 9 x 13-inch baking dish.

Notes

Onion rings may be placed in a plastic bag and crushed with a rolling pin instead of using a blender or food processor. Equal amounts of low-fat sour cream and light mayonnaise may be substituted, if desired. If catfish fillets are not available, any white-fleshed fish will work (try cod, haddock, sole, flounder, or perch).
