Ingredients

4 tablespoons butter, melted
2 (6 ounce) fillets sea bass
2 eggs, beaten
1 ½ cups finely ground almonds
1 teaspoon onion powder
1 teaspoon seafood seasoning (such as Old Bay®)
1 teaspoon sea salt
½ teaspoon garlic powder
1 ½ cups grated Romano cheese

Steps:

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Melt butter in a 9x13-inch glass baking dish.
Pat sea bass fillets dry. Dip into beaten eggs. Coat with almonds; season with onion powder, seafood seasoning, salt, and garlic powder. Place in the buttered baking dish.
