Cornflake crumbs make a crispy coating on these easy baked fish fillets. The fish is flavoured with butter, lemon juice, and seasonings.
Ingredients
- 1 to 1 1/4 pounds fish fillets
- 2 tablespoons butter (melted)
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper (freshly ground)
- Optional: 1/4 teaspoon dill weed (dried)
- 2 cups corn flakes (crushed)
- 1/2 cup mayonnaise
- 2 tablespoons sweet pickle or capers (chopped)
- 1/2 teaspoon Dijon mustard, or to taste
Steps to Make It
- Heat the oven to 350 F
- Grease a 13-by-9-inch baking dish
- If fish fillets are large, cut into serving-size portions
- Combine butter and lemon juice in a bowl; set aside
- In a small bowl or cup, mix salt, pepper, and (if using) dill
- Put the cornflake crumbs in a wide, shallow bowl
- Dip each piece of fish in butter and lemon mixture
- Sprinkle salt and dill mixture over each side of fish
- Coat with the corn flake crumbs
- Place the fillets in the prepared pan and bake until fish flakes easily with a fork, about 20 to 30 minutes, depending on the thickness of the fish fillets.
