Cheesy Fish

Adding a crust to the top of fish is a very popular way to cook it. It gives it a little more flavor and texture and you can vary it up depending on what you like. Some recipes are a straight breadcrumb crust and some have cheese involved. With this recipe, you get both plus an easy dash of flavor with Italian dressing. My personal favorite part is the sliced mozzarella and tomatoes. In fact, during the summer, one of my go to dinners is chunks of tomato and mozzarella with balsamic vinaigrette.
