The breadcrumb coating makes the dish particularly appealing and tasty, while spices enhance the natural flavor of the fish. It is served with lemon, herbs, or sauces, adding extra zest to the dish. It pairs perfectly with mashed potatoes, pickled apples, or fresh vegetables. This versatile dish is suitable for both family dinners and festive tables.
