I made this for my family last night and I was so excited until I took a bite. It was not a good combination for my liking, the cornmeal was not a pleasant texture, and would have been better off using Panko or another breadcrumb instead. Needless to say it was a waste of time and money. I didn't even serve it to my family... it went right into the trash. I also agree with another comment below. The breading stuck on the fish nice, until you turned it over, and then it all fell off in one large chunck. I would NOT reccommend this recipe.

Gosh, I am sorry for this low rating but we didn't like this at all. I followed the recipe, only reducing the cayenne pepper to 1/8 tsp as we don't like spicy, hot food. Even though we like all the ingredients used, the spices were not a great combination for our tastes. The coating did seem to stick okay until I flipped it, then most of it fell off. I see that I am a minority with all the great reviews so I am glad that others enjoyed it. Thx for posting.

Absolute outstanding. Within two days I have made it twice. I'm so glad to have made this easy to make, healthy and so deeeelish fish recipe. I have used catfish and tilapia and it was great. The breading is very easy to made and because only "dry" ingredients are used you can make in advance. I love the taste of mustard and the milk mixture gives just the right amount of mustard flavour without overpowering the other flavours. Because I like it spicy, I have added a little more of cayenne pepper and it was fantastic. Love the taste of the breading and the texture of it. In opposite to pan seared fish it remains dry and is not soaked with oil. You can use any of your favorite dips with this fish too, try you favorite salsa or dip. Or maybe try a little dijon mustard with the fish to support this flavour. The fish is easy to make and it really needs not more than 4 minutes from each side. The second time I have made this recipe I cut the fillet into smaller pieces to have more of the breading and the outcome was a fantastic finger food. I tried the leftovers cold and still was so good that I have had it with mustard and salad as a sandwich. Thank you so much Hope for this wonderful recipe. It opens so many possibilities of variations that 5 stars are sure not enough. I will make it now very often.

I have tried and posted many oven-fried type fish recipes and this one is the best of show. The coating was well seasoned. The fish was crispy on the outside, tender on the inside. Very closely resembles real fried fish. Thanks so much for posting.

We really liked this fish. The tilapia was nice and crisp on the outside and had great flavor. The only thing I will try differently next time is to sprtiz the top of the fish coating with Pam so it doesn't get too dry. Loved the flavor and it was nice and healthy, too! Thanks. :) Made for the Healthy Choices tag game.

A good simple breading recipe for fish. Made this tonight with flounder, and I like the crunchiness of the corn meal. The ingredients are basic pantry items so no need to make a special trip to the food store. The cayenne pepper is a must have ingredient for me, and it lends a nice zing to the recipe. Not a show-stopper recipe, but hey, how much of a wow factor can breading have? It's a solid recipe that goes together fast using basic pantry ingredients, and dinner can be on the table in a snap.

THIS WAS AWESOME and will change the way I eat fish!! Not having any cornmeal, I subbed Pepperidge Farm Cornbread Stuffing and then just used a rolling pin to crush it. I used 1 1/2 c. of this and then used the seasoning amounts called for in the recipe since the stuffing has it's own seasoning. I only had flounder fillets on hand but think you need a better quality of fish for it to taste it's best. I also sprayed the foil really well and had no problems with the breading falling off when I flipped them. Thanks for sharing..this one is a keeper for sure!!

This was so good that I didn't eat anything else on the table...and I'm not much of a fish lover! I used half cornmeal and half fish crisp (a powder batter mix available in Canada) in place of half of the cornmeal and added two tablespoons of butter to the pan before broiling. I broiled for 5 minutes on each side. It was delicious!!!

Lovely way to do fish. I used just cheap flounder fillets. Also added plain breadcrumbs instead of cornmeal. Superb.

Thanks for sharing such a great recipe! I tried it because of the unusual milk mixture with the vinegar and brown mustard. Loved it! Your seasonings are spot on-I didn't have the cayenne pepper, but recipe tasted wonderful to my hubby and me. BTW, I baked thick catfish 375 degrees for 20 minutes, turning halfway through. This baking time, gave me time to do the veggies.

This was very good. I used the breading and milk mix on northerns and fried. I know, not as healthy as baked, but don't think I could have gotten by with baked with my DH. He really liked this. He had gotten tired of fish as he and my brother went fishing a lot, so we had lots in the freezer. He said he could eat more fish fixed this way. Thanks so much for a great recipe.

Best fish I have eaten in a long time! We loved the crispy coating on the outside and though I used it on some bass, it was excellent!
