    Toast 2 pieces of gluten free bread until crispy. Put them in a Cuisinart for 20 seconds and you've got your gluten free bread crumbs.

    Cook your fish at a medium-high temperature, a minimum of 350 degrees. Decide which of the methods you want to use, and go for the longest amount of time suggested. Then check the fish with a fork to see if it is opaque and flaky. If not, continue to cook the fish until you get the desired texture.
