The only way to eat Crappie is fried....BUT Crappie Cordon Bleu is pretty good

I like Crappie fried. But if you want it baked, try this:

I take a crappie piece about 4 inches long and wrap it in a slice of ham doing so longways so the ham goes around the filet several times (very thin slice of ham) and stick a toothpick thru to keep the ham from unwrapping. I then place as many of these wrapped filets as I can fit in a baking dish. In a seperate bowl I mix 1 can of cream mushroom soup (can use the low salt low fat version if you like), the water the soup calls for (or milk if u like) and about 1/2 container of Sour Cream (you can use the reduced fat if u like) and mix that all up and pour on top of the ham wrapped filets. I also add some Tony's cajun spice on to the top (once again if need low sodium cajun flavoring or any spice you like). I then bake that for at least 30 minutes or until the liquid startes to get thick. I then place the ham wrapped morsals on rice making sure to get plenty of the gravy. I use the yellow saffron rice in the small bags with everything already in one package (about $1.25 ea.) What you have leftover will be even better the next day OR you can take in for your co-workers to get a taste of the "GOOD LIFE".

Enjoy and let me know what you think.

That sound good - I'm gonna try it!

My wife makes the best chicken cordon bleu, it is similar but also has cheese and crushed crutons baked on top. the crutons would be good on the fish too probably.

oops,,, you let the cat out of the bag there Sac-a-lait;;;

not only does that work great with crappie,

Yall have heard of new England clam chowder.(presto) Replace the clams with crappie Frist take and cut the crappie into small pieces about 1/2 squares coat them with creole seasoning put about 2 oz. of butter in iron skillet brown them about 3 or4 minutes then put them into the chowder about five minutes before done. There you go ( CRAPPIE CHOWDER )
