Time 20m

Number Of Ingredients 5

1-1.5 lbs. haddock (patted dry (or cod))
1 cup plain breadcrumbs (or seasoned, see note)
6 tablespoons salted butter (melted (see notes))
kosher salt and black pepper
lemon wedges and fresh parsley (for serving (optional))

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  • Put a spoonful of the melted butter in a baking sheet or dish and spread to coat the bottom.
  • Combine the bread crumbs (1 cup) with the rest of the 6 tablespoons of melted butter.
  • Salt and pepper both sides of the fish liberally (I used about 1 teaspoon kosher salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper), and lay in the buttered baking dish.
  • Spread bread crumbs - all of them - evenly over the top of the fish. I use my hands to sprinkle it on (it won't really stick like traditional breading - it's more like a topping).
  • Bake for 15 minutes, or until fish is cooked thoroughly (and flakes easily).
  • Serve with a squeeze of lemon juice and a garnish of fresh parsley, if desired.

This is my favorite way to cook haddock. The recipe was originally for baked stuffed shrimp, so you could use it for that also.

salt, to taste
1/2 cup breadcrumbs
1/2 cup crushed butter flavored cracker (such as Ritz or Townhouse)

Harris Teeter pepper
1/2 cup Harris Teeter olive oil

Pour white wine into pan, being sure not to drizzle directly onto fish.4.Bake until flaky, approximately 10 minutes. Do not overcook.5.Place under broiler for a few minutes to finish-

Tips:

  • To ensure the haddock fillets are evenly cooked, they should be of similar thickness. If they are not, the thinner fillets may overcook while the thicker ones remain undercooked.
  • If you don't have dry white wine, you can use chicken broth or water instead. However, the wine will add a subtle flavor to the dish that is worth trying if you have it on hand.
  • Feel free to add other vegetables to the baking dish, such as broccoli, carrots, or potatoes. This will make the dish a more complete meal.
  • If you don't have a baking dish with a lid, you can cover the dish with aluminum foil. Just be sure to seal the edges tightly so that the steam doesn't escape.
  • Baked haddock is a versatile dish that can be served with a variety of sides. Try it with rice, mashed potatoes, or roasted vegetables.
