Ingredients

The following ingredients have 4 Servings
  • 1-1.5 lbs. haddock (patted dry (or cod))
  • 1 cup plain breadcrumbs (or seasoned, see note)
  • 6 tablespoons salted butter (melted (see notes))
  • kosher salt and black pepper
  • lemon wedges and fresh parsley (for serving (optional))

Instruction

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  • Put a spoonful of the melted butter in a baking sheet or dish and spread to coat the bottom.
  • Combine the bread crumbs (1 cup) with the rest of the 6 tablespoons of melted butter.
  • Salt and pepper both sides of the fish liberally (I used about 1 teaspoon kosher salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper), and lay in the buttered baking dish.
  • Spread bread crumbs - all of them - evenly over the top of the fish. I use my hands to sprinkle it on (it won't really stick like traditional breading - it's more like a topping).
  • Bake for 15 minutes, or until fish is cooked thoroughly (and flakes easily).
  • Serve with a squeeze of lemon juice and a garnish of fresh parsley, if desired.
