This recipe was divine. It tasted like something you would eat in a gourmet restaurant. I had 3 pieces of fish and had enough mix. I also added a little parmesan to the 3rd filet just for a variety. It came out excellent. I am updating because I just made this again. I added shrimp that I cut up in small pieces. It is very good this way also.

This is one of those recipes that tastes so elegant and decadent that it seems like it would have taken forever, but it was so simple and easy! I doubled the recipe to 1 and half pounds (which was 5 fillets) and doubled all the topping ingredients. I used paprika since I didn't have any Old Bay, but I think the cream cheese could have used a little more seasoning (I'll definitely add more next time). I made this for my parents and they loved it! Thanks Cookin'Diva!
