  I cooked this a while back, I must of messed it up becuase it was horrible! I think i tried to coat the whole fish and the bread was soggy, the top didnt risp up like I wanted to so it was absolutely discusting. Loved the idea of it so may give it another go buy do it properly next time.

  Even my fish-hating parter liked this one! I wasn't a fan of the olives, but they worked pretty well in this dish. I added extra lemon juice to the breadcrumb mix to make it 'stick' better, and it tasted really nice.

  Absolutely loved this, so simple to make and quick too. Served it with new potatoes and a salad of finely sliced fennel, cabbage and courgettes with lemon and olive oil dressing.

  Very easy for a mid-week meal, and tasty too! I also served it with roasted veg and couscous.

  Delicious and very easy. I used cheap frozen fish and I was amazed by how good it tasted. The children loved it too!

  Worked a treat and really livened up plain white fish. Followed recipe exactly but used red pesto. Served with roasted veg and green salad. Tasty.

  Totally forgot the lemon rind! But it was still lovely without. We tried it with the pesto rosso and the sun dried tomatoes. It was lovely!

  Tried this with a little chopped bird eye chilli. it lifts it to another level. You can adjust the heat to suit your pallet.

  I made this for the first time last night as a quick meal and quick it was. Im not a fan of olives but added them anyway, or a fan of lemon with fish but went with it and really enjoyed the dish, however i may reduce the amount of lemon zest next time.

  This recipe was quick and easy. I made pesto from scratch using chilli oil and this added a little kick to the dish. Was really lovely with a sweet potato and spinach salad.

  Very disappointing. Flavours were really strange. I'm not sure why they didn't work but will not make again.
