This is my favourite recipe for oven baked crusted fish fillets. I never really measured amounts, so the ratio herbs-parmesan-nuts as well as the total amount is an educated guess. I've so far used all kinds of nut mixes, you can even add in some ground sesame seeds. It's great with salad, but also with spinach, and I've also made it on the side of oven baked vegetables.

How To Make herb and nut crusted baked fish fillets

  • 1
    Preheat oven to 220°C (425°F) and grease a baking dish which is large enough for the four fillets, then pour the lemon juice over the fillets and let them sit while preparing the crust
  • 2
    In a bowl, combine chopped herbs, nuts, parmesan and olive oil, a dash of salt and pepper to taste. Mix well with a fork and add more oil if needed until you have kind of a paste.
  • 3
    Pat the fillets dry, lightly salt them (skip that if you want less salt) and place them in the greased dish, they should not overlap each other!
  • 4
    Distribute the paste over the fillets until they are completely covered
  • 5
    Bake for about 10 minutes, the shortly remove to place some butter flakes on top of the crust. Put back into the oven and bake for additional 10-15 minutes
