That fry mix would have worked just fine, Lucky.
After all, it's just seasoned panko.
I think tonight will be pan fried thin rib eye steak sandwiches on Portuguese rolls. There is American cheese, fried onions and peppers to add to sandwich. I will probably just have a butter schmear, salt and ground pepper.
The cheater stuffed shrimp were good but not as good as the stuffed shrimp that I make with real crab cakes. I made a huge mistake with the rice and tried to cook it in a rice cooker. It came out gooey...never again. I've used the same Mahatma saffron rice mix and cooked it stove top and it comes out light and fluffy.
Feeling under the weather......
