Ingredients:


1/4 cup butter or margarine

2 teaspoons lemon juice

16 ounces fish fillets -- thawed

1 teaspoon salt -- to taste

1 teaspoon pepper -- to taste

3/4 cup breadcrumbs -- seasoned dry

1 teaspoon paprika

6 slices lemon slices -- opt.

1 bunch parsley sprigs -- fresh, opt.
 

Preparation / Directions:


Place butter in a 1-cup glass measure. Microwave at HIGH for 30 seconds or until butter is melted. Stir in lemon juice. Sprinkle fillets with salt and pepper; brush both sides of each with butter mixture. Gently dredge fillets in breadcrumbs, and sprinkle with paprika. Arrange fillets in a 12 x 8 x 2" baking dish with thicker portions to outside (thinner portions may overlap if necessary). Cover with waxed paper. Microwave at High for 3 to 5 minutes or until fish flakes easily when tested with a fork, giving dish one half-turn during cooking. Garnish with lemon slices and parsley, if desired.
