My kids love all things fried, what kid doesn't right? I have figured out a way to get them to THINK they are still eating "fried" fish, BUT they are not!
AND they like it just as much!
Its a bit more work than simply throwing fish in a casserole dish and baking it, but the extra steps are worth it especially if your children or even you are not too keen on eating fish. If this will be your first time serving fish or getting your kids to eat some, its a delicious first time experience that will only make them want MORE in the future!
I love all things fish. Its low in calories, cooks quickly and is full of healthy fats our bodies need. Hopefully this terrific recipe will encourage you to venture into the fish world and love every single bite!

Can you substitute the Bread Crumbs and Parmesan to be gluten free and dairy free?
