Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°.
• Rinse the fish and place on a nonstick baking sheet.
• Sprinkle both sides with lemon-pepper and sprinkle shallots over the top.
• Divide the butter into 4 pats and place one on top of each piece of fish.
• The fish will cook in 15-20 min, depending on how thick it is, so it should be popped into the oven the same time you start the water for the veggies.
• While the fish is cooking, cut the vegetables into bite size pieces.
• Set aside until the final 5 minutes of fish cooking time, but make sure you have 1 quart of water boiling by that point.

• Once the fish is close, add the vegetables to the boiling water, cook 3-4 min, till carrots are tender.
• Drain without rinsing, place in a small bowl.
• Crumble basil over the top, drizzle with olive oil and toss to coat.
• Divide between 4 plates, add the fish.
