I don’t think we have Paxo here. What would be a comparable substitute?
Hi Rachel,
No Paxo? No problem! You can make your own with 2/3 cup plain breadcrumbs plus 1/2 tsp sage, ½ tsp thyme, ½ tsp parsley, ¼ tsp onion powder, ⅛ tsp garlic powder, and a pinch of salt & pepper. Or, if you prefer the real thing, Paxo is easy to find online, Amazon usually carries it!
We would love to hear how it turns out if you make it!
Hope this helps,
