Instructions

Preparation: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a 13×9 baking pan lightly to prevent sticking.

Season: Sprinkle salt and pepper evenly over the fish filets.

Prepare Butter Mixture: In a small bowl, mix the melted butter and lemon juice until well combined.

Coat Fish: Drizzle the butter mixture over the fish, ensuring each filet is coated evenly.
-
Add Onions: Spread the thinly sliced onions over the fish filets, distributing them evenly.
-
Bake: Place the baking pan in the preheated oven and bake uncovered for about 25 minutes, or until the fish flakes easily with a fork and is opaque throughout.
-
Serve: Once cooked, remove from the oven and serve immediately. Optionally, garnish with fresh herbs like parsley or dill for added flavor and presentation.
Recipe Notes
- Choosing Fish: Opt for firm white fish like cod, halibut, or tilapia for best results.
