This turned out great. Due to allergies, I substituted coconut flour for the breadcrumbs and cornmeal. The coating stuck to the fish very well. And, oven frying was very simple. The fish turned out very tender (this is usually hard for me). I would not use the cayenne next time though-- just too hard on my tummy. Excellent recipe. Will make again this week.
