Instructions

  1. Step 1

    Preheat the oven to 400°F. Pat the 1.5 lb fish fillets dry and place them in a lightly oiled baking dish.

  2. Step 2

    In a small bowl, mix 1 cup breadcrumbs, 3 minced garlic cloves, 2 tbsp olive oil, 1/2 tsp salt, and 1/4 tsp black pepper until the crumbs are evenly coated.

  3. Step 3

    Sprinkle the breadcrumb mixture evenly over the fish, pressing gently so it adheres.

  4. Step 4

    Bake for 12-15 minutes, until the fish flakes easily with a fork and the topping is golden brown.

  5. Step 5

    Drizzle with the remaining 1 tbsp olive oil and sprinkle with 2 sliced green onions before serving.
