Instructions
Step 1: Prep and Mix
- Preheat your oven to 350°F.
- In a small bowl, combine the 1/4 cup butter, 1 tablespoon lemon juice, and onion to create the lemon butter mixture.
Step 2: Season and Bake
- Season the fish fillets to your liking with the fish seasoning.
- Place the seasoned fish fillets in a baking dish and brush generously with the lemon butter mixture, coating it well.
- Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the fish flakes easily with a fork but is still moist.
💡 Make-Ahead & Storage: Assemble and coat the fish just before baking for the best texture, as raw fish does not hold well when pre-coated in butter and citrus.
