    Wow - very good. Made with olive oil rather than margarine. Added fresh onion in addition to onion powder - softened first on stovetop. Very Very Very good and simple recipe! Thanks! - 3/30/10

    This is really good. I used white basia fish, margarine, fresh lemon juice, sliced onions, and mixed French herbs, with other ingredients. Rich flavor. - 7/3/09

    This may sound a strange combination but I wanted something to give brussels sprouts a little zing so decided to try one portion of left over parmesan mixture on them. I am so glad I did, it made the brussels sprouts taste wonderful, light and fresh and delicious. Definitely going to do this again! - 5/11/10

    It doesn't say in the ingredients list but if you look at the 'full breakdown' of the nutrition info she has the fish listed as: "Sea Queen Whiting fillets, (4 oz)". Havent tried it yet but I'm def. going to now. :) - 4/25/10

    Best way I have eaten fish that wasn't fried! - 6/25/09

    Loved it. Through it together last minute and didn't even have to fully thaw the Mahi I used from Costco. Just defrosted slightly in the microwave first and broiled slightly longer. Husband loved it too! - 6/5/09

    Best fish ever! Used onion powder as I'm watching the salt and cut back on the mayo. The ingredients didn't indicate the number or size of fillets so I used 4 fillets about 4 oz each. This is my favorite fish recipe to be sure! Thanks! - 5/27/09

    This recipe is amazing! My family usually doesn't like fish, but after making this recipe for them once, it has become a family favorite. Tastes as good as any restaurant. Thanks for submitting it!!!! And it is fast and easy to make too. - 8/26/08

    It's tasty, but I think the fish needs to be cooked longer. The amount of fish needs to be included.

    This is a keeper! I used this on lake-caught white bass, and it was the best fish I've had all year. I didn't use the margarine, just light mayonnaise, lemon juice, pizza seasoning and Parmigiano. Broiled it until the Parmigiano bubbled and browned, that's it. Thanks for sharing seabeacon8. - 3/28/13

    I'm not much of a fish fan. I've only cooked it a few times in my life. When I saw this recipe and the excellent reviews I decided to give it a try. It was "okay" but it didn't make me a fan of fish. I wanted to love it but I didn't think it was anything spectacular. I used fresh tilapia. - 9/29/12

    This was excellent! I used shark steaks, which took a bit longer to cook as they were fairly thick. The sauce was delicious and very rich tasting! I'll definitely make this again. - 8/16/09

    My new favorite fish recipe! I added some lemon zest to the topping to up the lemon flavor. My Hubby even liked it (he's not a fish eater). Thanks for posting this! - 7/17/08

    Used butter (I don’t use margarine) and only about 4 tsp. It was delicious. Now I need to try it on Brussels sprouts as suggested by another reader! - 3/13/21
