Nice fish preparation! I subbed in gluten free flour due to personal need. The fish came out nice and moist on the inside with that timing. Thanks for sharing! ZWT9

I thought this was a very tasty recipe. The sauce was nice and "zingy" to go with the fish. I think next time though I won't bother to cut up the fish and just serve whole, but great recipe. Thanks for posting!:)

Very yummy! I think I used the wrong brand of Cajun seasoning (Zatarains), as it came out really salty and I didn't add any extra salt. With a better, and spicier, seasoning it would have been great. Thanks!

Very nice way to prepare fish! Quick to throw together and you get the nice crunchy crust without frying. A keeper!

these were great but way too much dill for out liking, I used 1 teaspoon dried and found it too strong, I added in 1 teaspoon garlic powder in with the flour mixture and increased the Cajun seasoning, will make again but with some adjusments, thanks Booms!
