Ingredients

1 lemon sliced
4 6 oz haddock fillets
3 tablespoons unsalted butter softened
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1 tablespoon grated garlic 2-3 cloves
¼ teaspoon paprika
¼ teaspoon garlic powder
⅛ teaspoon coarse kosher salt
⅛ teaspoon black pepper
1-2 lemons sliced
1 tablespoon chopped parsley

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 400°F.
To a 9x13 baking dish, add the lemon slices. Top the slices with the haddock fillets.
To a small bowl, add the lemon, butter, grated garlic, and dried seasonings. Mix until combined.
Smear the butter mixture over the haddock fillets.
Bake for 10-12 minutes or until flaky.
Remove from the oven. Top with the chopped parsley.

Notes

Make sure to pat the haddock fillets completely dry with paper towels so they don’t release excess moisture while cooking.
You can tell it’s done when the fish turns from translucent to opaque and flakes easily with a fork. If you’re not sure, check the thickest part of a fillet with a thermometer—once it reaches 145°F, it’s ready to come out.
Leave a little space between each haddock fillet in the pan, so they cook evenly. If they’re too crowded, the heat can’t circulate properly around the fish.
