This was OK. I should have read the reviews before I made it....definately need to brush with something to get the breading to stick. Also...my Parmesan cheese burned...not sure how to fix that. But taste was OK...needed more salt.

Has anyone used crushed corn flakes instead of bread crumbs?

I have made this many times. It is not only delicious but easy to fix.

This recipe turned out great. It was quick to make and didn't require many ingredients. My 2 1/2 year old even liked it.

This was pretty good! I used dry instead of soft bread crumbs, and I breaded some tilapia and some cod both. I love fish but don't care for tilapia, and this recipe allowed me to tolerate the rest of the tilapia I had in the freezer! I baked spritz the fish with extra light virgin olive oil before dipping it in the bread crumb mixture. That worked fine. I also baked it for 20 minutes and got it nice and golden brown. I liked the crispy breading a lot. It had the texture of what you would put on catfish. I'm sure it would have been great with some tartar sauce, but I skipped it to keep the calories low. My 4 year old doesn't eat fish that isn't breaded, and he didn't complain about eating this fish at all. The cod was even better in this breading than the tilapia, though. Delicious!

It was very tasty. I dipped my tilapia in eggs first before dipping into the bread crumb mixture. It seemed to work.

even my 7 year old "I HATE FISH" daughter ate this and has asked for it again. I ate the leftovers the next day and it even reheated well, which very much surprised me!

It was very tasty. To get the bread crumbs to stick, brush a little olive oil on the fish.
