I used Panko Japanese-style bread crumbs and a FULL CUP of freshly grated Parmesan cheese. 4 large fillets fit perfectly in a 13 x 9 1/2 baking dish. 22 minutes max. 30 minutes would have dried them out. Grated a little extra parm on top before serving. Really good recipe and my husband loved it, too!
