Step 1

Step 1 - Pre-heat your oven to 350F(180C) with a rack in the middle. Spread 1 tbsp (15ml) of Extra Virgin Olive Oil at the bottom of a baking dish; set aside.

Step 2

Step 2 - In a large frying pan, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the diced shallots (or onion) and garlic, and cook for about 5 minutes until the shallot/onion is glistening. Add the white wine, and cook until the liquid has completely evaporated. Set aside.

Step 3

Step 3 - In a medium bowl, combine the breadcrumbs, chopped parsley, lemon juice, ½ tsp salt, pepper and cooked onion and garlic. Mix until you get a crumbly texture, slightly moist.

Step 4

Step 4 - Lay the fish filets in the baking dish and sprinkle with ½ tsp salt. Cover evenly with the breadcrumb topping and slightly press down with your fingers or the back of a spoon.

Step 5

Bake for 25 to 30 minutes until the fish is done and the topping is golden. Optional: finish off with 1 to 2 minutes under the broiler for extra crunch.
