I'd give it a 5 but this recipe lacks oil or butter which makes the coating crispy in oven and not a dry flaky mess. I have made this for 30 years but I mix with Panko and you must give them a healthy spray or drizzle of butter or oil on both sides after breading. Otherwise they do not taste right and the texture is not that good.

I must have missed something in making this recipe. The coating was very dry and not at all crispy.

This was tasty and very easy to make. Mine wasn't anywhere near golden and crispy, however, after 20 minutes, so I broiled it for a few minutes and that worked out well. I would make it again.

This was good, but maybe a bit bland. Next time I would increase the amount of parmesan and also add some lemon pepper or old bay seasoning to the mix.

Tasted good but mine didn't really get crunchy.
