The special twist in my Herb-Baked Fish with Crispy Crumb is the fresh parsley and crushed corn flakes in the crumb. The parsley adds a strong herby flavor and corn flakes make it so much crispier than a normal bread crumb, meaning that it holds its crunch even when swimming in the delicious buttery sauce.
This recipe is super easy and an added bonus is that you can use any fish from your freezer. You don’t even need to fully defrost it! It can be popped into the oven partially thawed. Simple and delicious, a great fish recipe to have handy!
To make the Herb-Baked Fish with Crispy Crumb, you will need the following ingredients:
Preheat oven to 450°F. Lightly oil a shallow baking dish. Lay the fish fillets in the dish - it should be big enough to hold them in a single layer without overlapping.
Over a medium-low heat, melt 2 tablespoons of butter in a skillet. Add the onion and sauté until it becomes translucent, around 3-5 minutes, stirring regularly. Stir in the garlic and fry for another minute. Add the herbs and cook for a further minute.
Pour the herb butter over the fish.
Mix the corn flakes, melted butter, parsley, and salt and pepper together in a small bowl. Sprinkle the crumbs over the top of the fish.
Bake the fish for 12 to 15 minutes until it becomes flaky and the crumb has started to brown.
Serve the fish with sliced lemons and pour any sauce from the dish over the top.
This Herb-Baked Fish with Crispy Crumb goes perfectly with a side of buttery greens and a pile of steaming rice. How do you find my version of the crumb? Let me know in the comments section and tag #cookmerecipes so I know how you’re getting on!
