• Preheat oven to 450°F.
• In a small bowl, combine bread crumb ingredients. Bread crumbs may be made 1 day ahead and chilled, covered.
• In a small bowl stir together mayonnaise and mustard. Arrange fish in a lightly oiled shallow baking pan and season with salt and pepper.

Coulis may be made 1 day ahead and chilled, covered.

• Meanwhile, melt butter in a small saucepan over medium-high heat. Cook, stirring often, until butter foams, then browns (don't let it burn), about 5 minutes. Remove from heat; let brown butter cool slightly. Stir in lemon juice, hazelnuts, and remaining 2 tablespoons oil; season with salt and pepper.
• Serve fish with hazelnut brown butter sauce and lemon halves.
