Instructions
Preparing Dill and Lemon Crusted Haddock is straightforward and can be done in a few simple steps. Follow these instructions to create a dish that will impress your family and friends:
- Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it with olive oil.
- Prepare the haddock fillets by patting them dry with paper towels. This helps the crust adhere better to the fish.
- In a small bowl, combine the olive oil and lemon juice. Brush this mixture evenly over the haddock fillets.
- In another bowl, mix together the lemon zest, chopped dill, breadcrumbs, Parmesan cheese, minced garlic, salt, and pepper until well combined.
- Press the breadcrumb mixture onto the haddock fillets, ensuring an even coating on all sides. The crust should stick well to the fish due to the olive oil and lemon juice mixture.
- Place the crusted haddock fillets onto the prepared baking sheet. Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until the fish flakes easily with a fork and the crust is golden brown.
- Remove from the oven and let the haddock rest for a couple of minutes before serving.
- Serve with lemon wedges and, if desired, garnish with fresh parsley for an added touch of color and flavor.
