Baked flounder with Parmesan Crumbs

Ingredients

• Flatfish

  raw

  12 oz or 340g

• Salt

  table

  ½ tbsp or 9g

• Black pepper

  ground

  1 tsp or 2g

• Parmesan cheese

  grated

  ⅜ cup or 38g

• Breadcrumbs

  dry, grated, plain

  1 tbsp or 7g

• Butter

  unsalted

  2 tbsp or 28g

• Olive oil

  1 tbsp or 14g

Directions

1. Heat the oven to 425°F. Pat the flounder dry, then arrange in a single layer in a lightly oiled baking dish. Season evenly with the salt and pepper.
2. Melt the butter (in a small oven-safe dish in the preheating oven or gently on the stove/microwave). In a bowl, combine the Parmesan, bread crumbs, melted butter, and olive oil until evenly moistened.
3. Spoon the mixture over the fish and gently press so it adheres. Bake until the fish flakes easily and the topping is golden brown, about 15 minutes. Let rest 5 minutes before serving.
