BAKED SCROD RECIPE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
• In a skillet, saute the onion in 1 teaspoon of oil and 1 teaspoon of butter until soft but not browned.
• In a medium sized bowl, combine the panko crumbs with the parsley and 1 teaspoon of melted butter, 1 teaspoon of olive oil, and the juice of half the lemon.
• Once the onions are soft, add a pinch of red pepper flakes, salt and pepper.
• Add to the onions, the juice of 1/2 the lemon (or more!) and the white wine and continue to cook for 1 minute.
• Spread the onion and lemon mixture into individual baking dishes or one baking dish large enough to snuggly hold all the fish.
• Place the fish on top of the onions and season the fish with salt and pepper and a little spray of olive oil.
• Divide the crumb topping evenly over the fish and sprinkle with parsley and give a light spray of olive oil.
• Bake for about 20 minutes until fish is cooked through and the crumbs are nicely browned.
• Cover with tinfoil half way through baking if the top is browning to fast.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
• Butter a baking pan large enough to hold the scrod in a single layer. Place the scrod in the prepared baking pan, and add salt, pepper, lemon juice, and wine. Drizzle a 1/4 cup of the melted butter over the fish.
• Bake at 350 degrees for approximately 20 minutes, or until fish flakes but is still moist.
• Remove the pan from the oven and preheat the broiler. Scatter the bread crumbs over the fish, and drizzle with the remaining 1/4 cup of melted butter.
• Brown under the broiler for 2 to 5 minutes only, just until lightly browned, and serve.
