  1. Wonderful fish recipe! I used cod fillets. Had a little trouble getting the chip mixture to stick so I "pressed" it onto the fish - no problem. Also would omit the thyme in future (but ONLY due to personal preference!). Will definitely make this again - very easy & delicious!
     
  2. Nice dish with simple ingredients and easy preparation. We used cod and Lay's and served it with baked potatoes and white corn. Thanks for the recipe!
     
  3. Hubby and I loved this. Easy to make and it came out wonderfully! Will experiment using different types and flavors of chips. Glad I have 2 pieces left so I can follow one reviewer's suggestion to warm leftovers and eat as a sandwich with red onion, etc.
     
  4. This was just after my fancy. Easy to make and full of flavor. I never have used potato chips in a fish crust, but it works perfectly. You can use your favorite chips to adapt it to your own taste. I served it with some additional chips and with two spicy sauces. Great! The fish came out of the oven with crispy and crunchy crust and the fish flaked easily, but still firm, moist and full flavored. And you can believe me this fish recipe shows how crunchy fish can be without frying. Thanks for sharing this keeper.
     
  5. Well this was great,I did add a little cayenne, about 1/4 tsp. I put that on everything lately lol, it turned our great. I used hallibut. There was 2 pieces left so the next night I warmed it up and made fish on a kaiser, with a little bbq sauce and slices of red onion, 2 meals in one recipe, prefect. Thanks so much its a keeper.

  1. Very crispy and easy to prepare. You can substitute olive oil instead of the butter to drizzle over fish to reduce saturated fats. Thanks MizzNezz.

After DH and I moved away from the farm, and to the city...I haven't done as much cooking and very little canning. But I do come to Zaar and look for new recipes once in a while. I'm still cooking Zaar!! I like to play at Facebook, with my family and friends. A lot of my Zaar friends are there!! Yay! It's a good way to keep in touch. We travel more. We're looking at the European trips now. Hope to go in the springtime. I really want to see London, I think I lived there in a past life, I've been obsessed with it since I was 10 years old!!
