I am 63 years old Texan...been frying fish over 40 years.... this has changed my fish frying FOREVER ! WOW, I followed the recipe, more or less, used fresh fine grated parmesan cheese but about 1/2 as much... I put it on water moistened, butterflied gulf jumbo shrimp. I then made a VERY THIN milk / egg wash and dipped them in that, then smashed them into Panko bread crumbs. Let 'em dry. Quick fried the shrimp in peanut oil 1 -1.5 minutes. WOW was it good !! THANKS !!

We stumbled across this recipe a couple years back and we won't ever use any others! So delicious!... We butter our fish fillets first then coat in the breading. 😋

My family is extremely picky. Had them watch this video together and they all agreed they'd try it if I made it. Thank you!! They loved it. I used Cod and cut into the same smaller pieces you did, just in case they didn't like it they would not waste a whole piece of fish. Adding this recipe to our menu!

Just tried this tonight. Perfect for my taste just as it is. Thanks so much, I really enjoy fish, but couldn’t find a recipe that I liked and that turned out well. Not everyone in family are fish lovers, but they seemed to enjoy the fish dinner we had tonight. 2 thumbs up!👍 👍

Just tried this recipe for crappie. Unbelievably good! My wife who doesn't really like fish absolutely loved it! Brought some to my neighbor who immediately asked for the recipe! My new go to for a shore lunch!

Excited to try this! My cousin in Ohio blessed us with 3 qt bags of walleye he caught on lake Erie. I've used 2 bags, 1 oven baked, 1 grilled in a foil pack and I have 1 left that my husband wants me to do a fish fry with. So excited to try it cause as soon as I saw you add the Parmesan I knew this was a winner. Thanks for sharing!! 😊

I made this and served to my husband. I was a little leary of doing so because he has his own seasoning recipe he uses. He loved it!! He said "I think that may be even better than mine.". I couldn't believe it. We both loved it.

Tried this using bluegill and perch with my boys. Delicious! Thank you. Halved the recipe. I'm sure it could be modified. Love your humor about measurements!

Why did Noah not bother fishing when he was on the Ark?
Because he only had 2 worms to use as bait.
Too bad for that because he would have loved this fish fry.
Love this simplicity approach and how to, these are the best kinds of recipes! & tasty too!

I followed the exact directions on the video -not the written recipe - & it came out perfect. My family absolutely loved it. GREAT RECIPE!

1 My wife is by far the best cook at our house. So when I use your recipe, it at least made me comparable to one of her dishes. Because it's such a good recipe thank you for sharing.

Used this recipe on some fresh caught walleye tonight! It was the best We ever had! Thank you for the recipe!

[alexkiminki]

Gonna try this tonight with some crappie from Minnesota through the ice I’m excited to try !

[sertthipavong]

I just made it with tilapia fish and it’s good!! Thx!!

[rontremmel]

Great recipe!! Thank you for sharing!! I played around a little added onion powder and went with the Lawry’s salt free version in one batch because I need to watch my salt. I did another batch with a teaspoon of Cajun spice blend aka Slap Ya Mama for a little zip!

Put it on catfish nuggets and OMG! I can't believe how good it is! My wife ate it up and that's saying something
