I've never been a big fish eater. I know it is so good for you, but it's never really been something I get excited about. Until now!
I found this recipe on Pinterest and thought it looked good enough to try. I'm so glad I did!
I made it last weekend and have been craving it every night since! It is on the menu tonight again, and I can't wait!
It's super easy and can be customized to your tastes. I did about 1/2 t. of the cayenne pepper and it was perfect for me. If you don't want it spicy at all, I'm sure it'd still be good if you left it out. The seasoning mixture made enough for two batches of fish.
I'm telling you, this recipe has me craving fish. That has to be saying something!!
You can check out the recipe from its original site or look at the one I copied below.
