I'm always looking for new and tasty ways to fix fish, and this one was a big hit! Easy too! Definitely a family favorite. The only thing I changed was I didn't have enough parmesan so I used Romano cheese. Great flavor and kick!

I loved how light this was. I cut the red pepper way down. I used a whole egg and was impressed. I will definitely make this again and double the coating.

Most definitely one of the best fish recipes I've had. I used 1/2 tsp red pepper and still a little hot for hubby. Perfect for me! Loved it!!

Really great! I served with stir fried broccoli, zucchini, onions, and red peppers. I made this meal for a multi-generational Floridian ...they loved it. It will definitely be on my menu list!

I used regular egg instead of the sub. These came out quite delicious and are so very EASY to make. This is a great, easy, and healthy dish. I will definitely make this again someday. :)

Doesn't have such fattening ingredients and has a kick to it.

This was excellent! I made only 1 serving cutting everything except the Parmesan down to 1/4 teaspoon and used a regular egg.
