How to Make Baked Fish With Orange

Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
Melt 2 tablespoons of butter in a medium frying pan over medium heat. Add 1/2 cup breadcrumbs, 2 cloves minced garlic, and the zest of 1/2 an orange.
Cook, stirring constantly, until the breadcrumbs are golden brown and have absorbed the butter (about 3-5 minutes).
Place 4 (6-ounce) fish fillets in a buttered 9x13 inch baking dish.
Sprinkle the breadcrumb mixture evenly over the fish.
Pour 1/2 cup fresh orange juice over the fish and breadcrumbs.
Bake uncovered for 25-30 minutes, or until the fish is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.
