This is a wonderful alternative to fried fish, coating the fish with butter and baking at high heat is the secret to the success of this recipe - use meaty fillets of fish for this if possible - FOR LOW-FAT OPTION; whisk together 2 egg whites with 2 tablespoon cold water, dip the fish into the mixture, allow excess to drip off, use in place of melted butter.
Ingredients:
1/3 cup dry breadcrumbs
2 -4 tablespoons grated parmesan cheese
1 -2 tablespoon paprika
2 teaspoons dried basil
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder (or more) (optional)
3/4 teaspoon salt (or to taste, i use seasoned salt for this!)
1/2 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper (or to taste) or 1/2 teaspoon lemon pepper (or to taste)
1 -2 lb fish fillet, of your choice
1/4 cup butter, melted (or use a healthy butter alternative)
Directions:
1. Set oven to 500° F (bottom oven rack).
2. Grease a shallow baking dish (enough to hold all fish without overcrowding).
3. In a shallow bowl, combine first 7 ingredients.
4. Brush fish fillets with melted butter, then dip into crumb mixture.
5. Place in a greased baking pan.
6. Bake uncovered at 500°F for 10 minutes, or until fish flakes easily with a fork.
