Ingredients

  • 2 lbs ocean perch
  • 13 cup butter
  • 1 garlic clove, minced
  • 2 teaspoons lemon pepper
  • 2 teaspoons Italian herb seasoning
  • 1 tablespoon parmesan cheese, grated
  • 1 12 cups cracker crumbs

Method

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
  • Spray baking sheet with cooking spray.
  • Melt butter in small skillet, and saute garlic a few minutes to take sharp edge off.
  • Do not brown.
  • Take off heat.
  • Mix crumbs with herbs, cheese, and pepper.
  • Starting with fish skin side up, brush each filet with melted butter and garlic.
  • Then sprinkle with a little of the lemon or lime pepper.
  • Then sprinkle with the crumbs.
  • Press the crumbs into the fish lightly, then turn over.
  • Repeat process with other side of filets.
  • Using an egg turner to avoid losing any crumbs, pick filets up and place in pan.
  • Bake for 15 minutes without turning, or until fish is flaky and done.
  • I like food spicy, so I use 3 cloves of garlic, and at least a tablespoon of herbs.
  • Serve with lemon wedges.
