• Yields 4 servings
• 1 cup dry bread crumbs
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1 tablespoon dried parsley leaves
• 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
• 1/4 teaspoon sweet paprika

Preparation

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 425° F. Combine the bread crumbs, garlic, parsley, cheese, paprika, salt and pepper on a large plate. Rub each fillet with lemon juice, then dredge in the crumb mixture to lightly coat. Line a shallow-sided baking sheet or pan with foil. Grease lightly with cooking oil spray. Place the fish on the pan and spray the tops with the cooking oil spray. Bake until cooked through, about 15 minutes, depending on thickness. If desired, place under a hot broiler until the tops are golden brown, about 3 minutes. Serve immediately, garnished with lemon wedges.
