- 2 tbsp chopped fresh parsley
- 1 tsp garlic powder

Instructions
- Set the oven to 425 degrees.
- Add the breadcrumbs, parmesan cheese, fresh parsley, garlic powder, lemon zest, salt, and pepper to a medium mixing bowl. Combine.
- Place the fish fillets in a small baking dish or sheet pan. Pour the melted butter on top of the fish and evenly coat each one.
- Next dip the butter coated fillets into the bread crumb mixture. Coat the top, bottom, and sides of the fish – gently pressing in the mixture. Place the fillets back into the baking dish.
