Thank u for your great recipes that u share with the jewish world ,your dinners always look delicious and am so excited to try this also, however i would love to do this using the same method but using chicken schnitzel instead of fish or cauliflower , would that work?

HI Yaeli! I think that chicken shnitzel is always amazing. It’s up to you if you like that style with a very taco-like dressing of lime and cilantro that is pretty distinct and cuts through the fishy taste. I can’t see why it would be bad,just a matter of taste.

Great Combo of Flavors Fish was moist inside and super crunchy.
Salad was so exotic and flavorful.
No leftovers 🙂

Great Fish!!! My family made this for dinner tonight. It was outstanding fish! Even my non-fish eaters ate it and we had the fried cauliflower as a side dish with that amazing slaw. Winner, winner.
