Dory Schnitzels with Italian Bread Salad

I picked up some John Dory fillets and they were the perfect schnitzel shape so I decided to make a big batch of them and keep them in the freezer for when we felt like a schnitzel fix.

Hannah came up with this salad, based on those chunky italian paesanella salads made with leftover bread. We chargrilled red peppers, put on some peas with onion (which we always have with schnitzel) tore the bread up and warmed it in the oven with herbs, chilli and olive oil.

I decided to throw some rosemary, tyhme and garlic in the oil I was frying the schnitzels in to flavour them a bit more. It worked well as the herbs sealed to the fish. When they were cooked we tossed all the cooked salad ingredients with cos lettuce and threw some anchovies threw. Just squeazed lemon and a drizzle of olive oil as dressing. Almost felt like a healthy(ish) version of fish and chips!
