Very good fish that we had with baked potatoes and tossed salad. Thanks Barb for sharing! -
I liked this recipe very much. It was a breeze to make. I did make some changes. I added a little crushed, dried red and green bell pepper (for some color),and dried cilantro to the tortilla chip mixture. I omitted the fresh cilantro. Delicious! Thanks Barb.
