How to Make Barbecue Baked Fish

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. Rinse fish fillets and arrange them in a lightly greased 9x13 inch baking dish.
  3. In a medium saucepan, melt 1/4 cup (1/2 stick) of margarine over medium heat.
  4. Add 1/2 cup of your favorite barbecue sauce, 2 tablespoons brown sugar, 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce, 1 teaspoon onion powder, and 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder to the melted margarine.
  5. Whisk until the brown sugar is dissolved and the sauce is smooth. Simmer for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, to allow the flavors to meld.
  6. Pour the barbecue sauce mixture evenly over the fish fillets, ensuring each fillet is coated.
  7. Bake for 15-18 minutes, or until the fish is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.
