- On a baking sheet line fish and brush with olive oil then sprinkle salt and pepper very lightly. Just enough to season fish

Notes
Helpful Recipe Tips
- For keto and gluten free, skip regular breadcrumbs. You can use pork rind panko aka crushed pork rinds or use gluten free breadcrumbs. The recipe will work as well if you skip the breadcrumbs all together.
- Sheet pan or oven rack, if you bake on a sheet pan and you leave skin on the skin will not be crispy.
- Fresh herbs and parmesan, you can use dried herbs if you like but the grated parmesan cannot be the Kraft parmesan cheese off the shelf. That parmesan won't melt very well if at all due to all the non-caking agents in it. The grated parmesan cheese isn't refrigerated in Whole Foods but it's fresh parmesan as well.
