Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

1/4 cup melted butter
1 1/2 tablespoons lemon juice
1/2 teaspoon sugar
1/4 teaspoon pepper
1/8 teaspoon paprika
1/4 teaspoon basil
1/8 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 lb fish fillets, cod or 1 lb haddock
1/3 cup dry breadcrumbs
vegetable oil cooking spray

Steps:

Melt butter in large glass Pyrex measuring cup and add lemon juice, spices and sugar.
Place bread crumbs in a shallow bowl or platter.
Spray a shallow baking dish with vegetable spray.
Cut fish into individual serving pieces.
Dip fish into butter and then coat each fillet well with bread crumbs.
Place bread coated fillets into baking dish.
Repeat until all fish fillets are covered.
Spoon the remaining herb butter mixture over fish.
I also use a pastry brush to lightly tap the tops of the breaded fish to make sure it is all cover.
You may need to melt more butter to coat fish.
Bake, uncovered, for 15 minutes at 400 degrees.
Fish is done when fish flakes easily with a fork.
