Follow the recipe and cooking instructions for this baked fish and you will experience complementary flavors. Add a boiled potato, a green vegetable and fresh lemon and you'll think you are dining on Cape Cod!

Restaurant chefs most always put about 1-2 tablespoons of water on the broiling pan to keep the fish moist during high heat cooking and to provide juices to serve.. Hint---remove the skin from the fish, then dip both sides in butter, then place the fish, what was skin side down on the baking pan. Pat on the crumbs (enough to cover), drizzle with more butter to moisten the crumbs add a squeeze of lemon (a small wedge) and bake in a 500 F degree oven for about 8 minutes, then broil briefly to brown the crumbs if needed. and baste the fish with pan juices once before placing under the broiler. Just before serving sprinkle with additional chopped parsley.
