This recipe had no flavor at all so I added Cayenne pepper to the breading mix fixed the problem with this recipe ???????? tastes soooo much better!

I substituted with panko bread crumbs so it would be crunchier and added salt and pepper. Yum.

I usually use my fathers beer batter recipe but was scanning and wanted something diabetic friendly..was thrilled that it was so easy..I added a tsp of garlic pepper to the recipe and not a piece was left! To boot one of my guest was a cook at Cheesecake Factory and was totally surprised and asked for the recipe as it would be great for the restraint menu for ease and you just can't beat the flavor! I also used Italian bread crumbs..was asked when we were having again..love the fact that it can be used on any fish.. I used perch and was dancing after the first bite! delightful and didn't have to worry about raising everyone's sugar level!

Honestly just needs a dash of pepper and it would be perfect I think.

I have made this twice now and our family enjoys it a lot. I didn't have bread crumbs the first time so I used crushed gold fish crackers and I don't think I will try it any other way! I also sprinkle the topping over the fish instead of dredging. I like the extra flavor on top. This recipe would work well with any mild fish. It's a keeper!

I just made this for dinner and it turned out great. My husband and two kids loved it as well. Love how simple it was to prepare.
