How to Make Baked Haddock Or Scallops Cod

  1. Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C).
  2. Wash and pat dry 1-1.5 lbs of haddock, scallops, or cod fillets. Season generously with salt and pepper.
  3. In a medium bowl, combine 1 cup breadcrumbs, 2 tablespoons melted light butter, 1 tablespoon lemon juice, 1/2 teaspoon salt, 1/4 teaspoon black pepper, and 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder.
  4. Add 1-2 teaspoons of cooking spray to the breadcrumb mixture, mixing until evenly moist and crumbly. The mixture should be moist but not soggy.
  5. Place the fish fillets in a shallow baking dish.
  6. Pour 1/4 cup dry white wine around the fish, ensuring it doesn't submerge the fillets.
  7. Evenly distribute the breadcrumb mixture over the fish.
  8. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the fish is almost cooked through and the breadcrumbs are golden brown.
  9. For extra crispy breadcrumbs, broil for 1-2 minutes, watching carefully to prevent burning.
