Result of this recipe, I would give a 8.5 out of 10. Could have had more spices for flavour, otherwise very good.

Added paprika, sage, and oregano to the mix, and it came out mind blowingly good, add them after the butter, and I skipped the crumbs, it's flaky and buttery and full of flavor. Great recipe.

I was looking for an alternative to frying fish. I found this recipe to be both easy and accurate. I absolutely agree on the adding more spices comment but kept the bread crumbs. I may never fry perch again.

This was very good. Added Old Bay Season to it plus the lemon pepper, 1/2 cup of milk is plenty.

Not bad. Topping stays pretty soggy even though I only used half the amount of milk and broiled it at the end. Also, if I made it again, I would reduce the amount of butter as it is a bit overpowering. But the fish itself was excellent - tender and moist.

I added Old Bay and tarragon, and thought it tasted great. I agree that a half cup of milk is more than enough, as is a half cup of crumbs. Butter could maybe be less, too, but it sure tastes good so I might keep it as is. The fish was flaky and delicious. I much prefer baking to frying.

This is the once and only once have I baked perch. Perch should be pan fried, or maybe deep fried.
