Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 fillets White fish fillets (such as cod, haddock, or tilapia)
- 2 tablespoons Lemon juice
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 0.25 teaspoons Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Softened butter
- 0.5 cups Grated Parmesan cheese
- 3 tablespoons Mayonnaise
- 1 tablespoon Chopped fresh parsley
- 0.5 teaspoons Garlic powder
Instructions
Preheat your oven's broiler to high and position the oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source.
Lightly grease a baking sheet or line it with aluminum foil for easy cleanup.
Rinse the fish fillets under cold water and pat them dry with paper towels.
Arrange the fish fillets on the prepared baking sheet and drizzle them evenly with the lemon juice. Sprinkle with salt and black pepper.
In a small bowl, mix together the softened butter, grated Parmesan cheese, mayonnaise, chopped parsley, and garlic powder until you have a smooth, spreadable mixture.
Evenly spread the cheese mixture over the top of each fish fillet, making sure to coat them thoroughly.
Place the baking sheet under the broiler and cook for about 6–8 minutes, or until the cheese topping is golden and bubbly and the fish flakes easily with a fork. Keep a close eye on it to avoid burning the cheese.
Remove the fish from the oven and let it rest for 2 minutes before serving.
Serve the broiled fish hot with your choice of side dishes, such as steamed vegetables, rice, or a fresh green salad.
