Tasty! I did the recipe a little differently than posted. First I used a baking dish instead of a skillet for the fish. It just didn't make much sense for me to put the fish in a skillet and then put the skillet in the oven when I was doing no cooking on the stove top in that skillet. Next I used real bacon bits instead of bacon. I never have strip bacon around. It gets eaten as soon as it is in the house and cooked. LOL I added extra olive oil and a touch of butter to make up for the missing rendered bacon fat. I thought my haddock was a four big fillets but when I opened the bag it turned out to be 13 tiny little fillets. So I ended up with a lot of topping per fillet but it was good so I didn't mind. It took less time to bake b/c my fillets were so small but I anticipated that and adjusted accordingly.Reply
