Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces haddock fillets
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 1 cup breadcrumbs
- 0.5 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon lemon zest
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 whole lemon, cut into wedges (for serving)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a large baking dish or line it with parchment paper for easier cleanup.
Arrange the haddock fillets in a single layer in the prepared baking dish. Pat them dry with a paper towel to ensure an even bake.
In a small microwave-safe bowl, melt the butter (about 30 seconds in the microwave or until fully melted).
In a mixing bowl, combine the breadcrumbs, grated Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, paprika, lemon zest, salt, and black pepper. Pour the melted butter into the mixture and stir until the crumbs are evenly coated.
Spoon the breadcrumb mixture evenly over the haddock fillets, pressing lightly to adhere the crumbs to the fish.
Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 18-20 minutes, or until the fish flakes easily with a fork and the topping turns golden brown.
Once baked, remove the dish from the oven and let the haddock rest for 2-3 minutes.
Sprinkle the baked fillets with chopped fresh parsley for garnish and serve with lemon wedges on the side.
