Ingredients

  • 1 cup fine dry breadcrumb
  • 1/4 cup toasted sliced almonds
  • 2 tablespoons butter or oleo, melted (not tub or spread product)
  • 2 (6 ounce) haddock fillets or cod fish fillets or other fish fillets
  • 1/4 cup flour
  • 2/3 cup good quality mayonnaise
  • water

Preparation

Step 1

1. Preheat oven to 350°F.
2 In small bowl, combine crumbs, almonds and butter; mix well.
3 If necessary, add additional melted butter, mixing well, just until crumbs hold together.
4 Coat fish with flour, shaking off excess.
5 Place skin side down in baking pan large enough to hold in a single layer.
6 Spread mayonnaise evenly over fish.
7 Sprinkle evenly with crumb mixture, lightly pressing into fish.
8 Pour water around fish to a 1/8 inch depth, taking special care to pour the thinnest layer of water possible around the fish so you don't wet the topping.
9 This step helps to ensure that the fish cooks up moist and tender.
10 Bake 20 minutes or until fish flakes when tested with fork.
