Ann's Tips and Tricks
It’s best to use Panko or homemade breadcrumbs for this dish. If you don’t have either, but do have some bread handy, tear up a slice into smallish pieces. Measure a slightly heaped ¼ cup, then pulse in a food processor into coarse crumbs. Add all the other ingredients from step one to them and blend as directed.
