Herb Crusted Fish Fillets

From april 2007 edition of australian super food ideas. Suggested you serve with oven-baked fries, lemon wedges and baby spinach. i used red snapper fillets (skin off) and served with mashed potatoe and steamed vegetables. the original recipe said 4 serves but the 700 grams of red snapper fillets i had could have served 5 to 6 with sides.

Steps

Transfer some of the breadcrumb mixture to a shallow plate.
