Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).

Notes
- Spicy Kick: Add cayenne pepper or chili powder to the panko for extra heat.
- Creamy Slaw: Mix in Greek yogurt or mayo for a creamier version.
- Baja-Style: Drizzle with chipotle or avocado sauce for a smoky flavor.
- Grilled Option: Grill the fish instead of pan-frying for a lighter version.
- Extra Toppings: Add avocado slices, pickled onions, or crumbled queso fresco.
