"Crispy breaded fish without frying! My husband only likes deep-fried fish, and he loves this. Feel free to use your favorite seasonings. You can also use tilapia or other white fish fillets." — Leanne

Bake in the preheated oven until the fish is opaque in the center and flakes easily with a fork, 15 to 20 minutes.

This was very good. I made as is, but would cut back on the salt next time as I am a low sodium eater. Next time I make this I would like to try putting the greased cookie sheet in the oven for a few minutes to get it hot and the bottom more crispy. Yummy!

I thought it tasted more like a walleye casserole. I just didn't think the flavor meshed and I was very disappointed. My husband was also not impressed.

LOVE THIS. We went to the store to find what fish looked best that day. It was walleye (which I had never made before). When I came back home with my visiting friend I found this recipe and made it while he did some chores for me. I used panko breadcrumbs. It was great! Thanks for making me look like a pro on the spot!

This recipe was quick, easy and delicious....healthier too. My husband didn't even realize until after dinner that we didn't have tartar sauce with the fish--it was that good :)

i used smaller individual pieces of walleye (cause i really like breading!) i baked it for 20 min in an un-greased casserole dish rather than a baking sheet. it was perfect!

My husband is a bit of a picky eater and he doesn't usually rate my cooking as exceptional but I made this for the first time tonight and he LOVED it! I didn't modify anything and I made my own bread crumbs out of 1 slice of wheat bread. It looked and tasted gourmet! I will definitely use this recipe again when I cook up the rest of the walleye we caught in Minnesota last year.
