Recipe Notes

For instant bread crumbs: Tear about 3 fresh bread slices and process in the food processor or mixer. (I used fresh bread crumbs for this recipe)

Panko style bread crumbs yield a better texture.

For Italian seasoning, I used the seasoning packs you get when you order pizza. You can also use red chilly flakes or dried cilantro.
