Preparation Time: 10 minutes preparation time + 20 minutes cooking
time
What you will need: 1 lb Fish Filets of your choice
⅔ cup Breadcrumbs
½ cup Cheddar Cheese, grated
1 tbsp Butter
½ tsp fresh Basil, chopped (dried works fine)
¼ tsp freshly grated Nutmeg, (dried as well)
A squeeze of fresh Lemon Juice
Salt and Pepper to taste
Preparation: Preheat your oven to 450oF. Next, combine in a bowl the
cheddar cheese, breadcrumbs, chopped basil, grated nutmeg, and salt
and pepper.
Take a baking dish and use the butter to grease the bottom and sides of
the dish. Line half of the cheese-breadcrumb mixture along the bottom
of the dish.
Next, place the fish fillets over the cheese-breadcrumb mixture. Add a
squeeze of fresh lemon juice over the fish fillets, and then cover with
the remainder of the cheese-breadcrumb mixture.
Place in the oven and bake for about 15-20 minutes until the fish is
cooked through.
The time taken for this will vary depending on the thickness of the fish.
When the fish is fully cooked, it should flake very easily.
This tastes good on its own, or with a bed of baby spinach leaf salad. It
also goes well with rice, or alternately with a few steamed greens and
potatoes.
