"This is a recipe I came across in a reader's digest cookbook and I thought it sounded delicious. I haven't cooked it yet, am going to cook it for mine and my partner's dinner tomorrow night because I think it sounds divine! Let me know what you guys think! For a more prominent lemon flavor, add the grated lemon rind to the breadcrumb coating."
