Thorp and Trainer Insurance Agency - Parmesan Crusted Baked Fish

Ingredients

¾ cup Japanese panko breadcrumbs
¾ cup Parmesan cheese finely grated
3 tablespoons unsalted butter room temperature
3 tablespoons mayonnaise
3 green onions, green tops only thinly sliced
1 teaspoon Worchestershire sauce
½ teaspoon Tabasco or other hot pepper sauce
1 ½ tablespoons lemon juice freshly squeezed (approx. 1/2 lemon)
salt and pepper to taste
4 white fish fillets approx. 6 oz; 1/2 to 3/4 inch thick
2 tablespoons fresh flat-leaf parsely finely chopped

Directions

Step 1

Preheat oven to 425°. Lightly butter a baking dish or individual grain dishes for the fillets.

Step 2

In medium bowl, mix together the cheese, breadcrumbs, butter, mayonnaise, green onions, Worcestershire sauce, Tabasco and lemon juice; season to taste with salt and pepper. Set aside until needed.

Step 3

Pat the fish fillets completely dry with paper towels (removing the moisture ensures they won’t get mushy while baking); season generously with salt and pepper. Arrange the fish in a lightly buttered baking dish or individual gratin dishes.

Step 4

Spread about 3 tablespoons of the cheese mixture over each fillet.

Step 5

Place in preheated oven and bake until bubbly and almost cooked through, about 8 to 10 minutes. Temperature should be approximately 125-130° when tested at thickest part of fillet with meat thermometer.

Step 6

Move fillets to broiler for 2 to 3 minutes to brown and crisp the tops. When done, the fish should flake easily with a fork.

Step 7

Remove from oven, garnish with fresh parsley and serve immediately.
