Ingredients

• 4 pieces White fish fillets
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 1 tablespoon Lemon zest
• 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
• 2 pieces Garlic cloves, minced
• 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, chopped
• 2 tablespoons Fresh dill, chopped
• 1 tablespoon Fresh thyme leaves
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 1 cup Panko breadcrumbs
• 0.5 cup Grated Parmesan cheese
• 2 tablespoons Butter, melted

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2

Pat the fish fillets dry with paper towels and place them on the prepared baking sheet. Brush them with olive oil.

Step 3

In a small bowl, combine the lemon zest, lemon juice, and minced garlic. Spread this mixture evenly over the fish fillets.

Step 4

In a separate bowl, mix together the fresh parsley, dill, thyme, salt, black pepper, panko breadcrumbs, and grated Parmesan cheese.

Step 5

Add the melted butter to the breadcrumb mixture and stir until the mixture is well combined and crumbly.

Step 6

Press the herb-breadcrumb mixture onto each piece of fish, ensuring the tops are well-coated.

Step 7

Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until the fish is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.

Step 8

For extra crispiness, broil for an additional 2-3 minutes until the top is golden brown.

Step 9

Remove from the oven and let rest for a couple of minutes before serving.

Step 10

Serve the herb-crusted baked fish with your choice of sides, such as steamed vegetables or a fresh green salad.
