Ingredients

Original recipe (1X) yields 2 servings

  • 1 lemon, divided

  • 1 tablespoon olive oil, divided

  • 1 clove garlic

  • 1/4 cup panko breadcrumbs

  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese

  • 1 1/2 teaspoons Catanzaro herbs

  • 1 pound white fish fillets (I used cod)

  • salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste

  • 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with foil.

  2. Cut lemon in half, and then into wedges. Squeeze juice from two lemon wedges into a small bowl. Add 2 teaspoons olive oil. Using a microphone grater, grate garlic clove into a paste; add to the bowl. Stir in panko, Parmesan cheese, and Catanzaro herbs.

  3. Drizzle remaining 1 teaspoon oil onto the prepared baking sheet. Season both sides of cod with salt and pepper; place on the baking sheet. Brush cod with Dijon mustard, and press panko mixture evenly onto cod.

  4. Bake in the preheated oven until fish flakes easily with a fork, about 15 minutes. Serve with remaining lemon wedges.

    Cook’s Note

    I used a microplane grater for the Parmesan; 1/4 cup finely grated cheese weighed about 20 grams.
