    The fish was so moist and flaky. The breadcrumb topping was crunchy and flavorful!

    I added a little bit of Parmesan cheese to the bread crumb mixture for extra flavor. Delicious!

    I used cod instead of tilapia, and it turned out perfectly. The lemon zest adds a lovely brightness to the dish.
