Ingredients

• 4 pieces (6-8 ounces each) Halibut fillets
• 1 cup (grated) Parmesan cheese
• 0.5 cup Panko breadcrumbs
• 2 cloves (minced) Garlic
• 0.5 cup Mayonnaise
• 1 teaspoon Lemon zest
• 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
• 1 tablespoon Olive oil
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
• 2 tablespoons (chopped, for garnish) Fresh parsley

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it with olive oil.

Step 2

Pat the halibut fillets dry with paper towels and place them on the prepared baking sheet. Season each fillet with salt and black pepper on both sides.

Step 3

In a medium bowl, combine the grated Parmesan cheese, panko breadcrumbs, minced garlic, mayonnaise, lemon zest, and lemon juice. Mix thoroughly until a paste-like consistency forms.

Step 4

Using a spatula or the back of a spoon, evenly spread the Parmesan mixture over the top of each halibut fillet, pressing gently to adhere.

Step 5

Drizzle the olive oil lightly over the coated fillets to help them achieve a crispy, golden crust.

Step 6

Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the halibut is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork. The topping should be golden brown.

Step 7

Remove the baking sheet from the oven and let the halibut rest for 2 minutes.

Step 8

Garnish with freshly chopped parsley and serve immediately with your favorite side dishes, such as roasted vegetables, rice, or a crisp green salad.
