    Amazing! Going to make this again and use it in my fish tacos. I did, however, use half breadcrumbs and half panko. All breadcrumbs would have reminded me more of a parmigiana chicken coating and have been...well, bready. While all panko generally does coat completely. The mixture of the two provided full coverage of the fish while getting extra crunchy. Can I say it? Yum-O!

    Tasty but I doctored up the breadcrumbs with extra onion and garlic powder. I used panko breadcrumbs which worked well. The lime on the fish is great.

    Was looking for a new twist on fried fish and was really excited to try this out. Being from South FL I used fresh mangrove snapper. While I have to say this made a good fried fish, it wasn't anything special. I used extra chili powder, the zest of four limes and panko breadcrumbs. In the end we juiced lots of lime over the fish and I had to whip up a quick batch of spicy tarter sauce to make this taste like something other than the average fried fish meal.

    A couple of months back as I was looking to make a home cooked Talapia meal for my friends I came across this easily recipe. I do not remember putting chilli powder in it but even without that my friends and family loved it. My friend living two hours away called me today wanting the "Same fish i had cooked the other day"

    This is delicious, except I wouldn't suggest "topping with lots of lime juice" - I found that just a few spritzes would be best - maybe serve with lime wedges for applying your own lime juice to taste. I drizzled just a little bit right over the fish and it was overpowering - way too tart. This recipe would have gotten another star if it weren't for that last instruction. Also, I used half panko and half regular bread crumbs.

    Very simple and quick. The lime is a must, you have to use the lime because it really completes the dish. Used Panko breadcrumbs and they worked great. My fish was a darker brown but did not burn, just be careful not to get the oil too hot, that's probably the problem other people had when they said the fish got too dark before cooking through.

    I've been dreaming about eating this since we made it the last time! We also used panko bread crumbs -- I think that's a must. It was incredibly tasty - like something you would get in a nice restaurant!

    the breadcrumbs got too dark and then we had to finish it in the oven to get the fish to temp.We also served it with the peppers and polenta that were in the episode.
