Comments:
I went all out here, buying fresh dill and an actual lemon. But I did cheap out and just use regular old bread crumbs that I made. Eh. And you know what? I actually ate a whole piece of fish. Very impressive, if you know my history of fish hating. It wasn't great, but it wasn't totally gross. I think the dipping sauce might have helped with that part. Adam thought it was too lemony, but I didn't mind it.
