     I like this very much. Using bread crumbs and much less oil is a great way to still get the fried crunch taste without extra calories! - 3/28/10

     This was wonderful! I added 2 Tbsp parmesan cheese, 1/2 tsp. garlic powder, and 1/4 tsp. sea salt to the bread crumbs. 2 out of 3 of my picky kids ate it! :) - 5/12/10

     Delicious, and EASY! I used Italian-seasoned breadcrumbs and stirred in some garlic powder, a dash of cayenne and some black pepper. Served with couscous and broccoli. Yum! - 7/10/13

     This was easy and pie and just the way my family & I enjoy eating fish, with the only difference being that I used a lot less oil to fry it in than I used to. - 7/16/08
