We’re here to show you how easy it is to make a restaurant quality seafood dinner right in your own kitchen! This Parmesan Crusted Haddock really couldn’t be easier. All it takes is five minutes of prep time and into the oven it goes!

Haddock should be baked until firm but still slightly opaque. This fish turns out so tender, flaky and moist you’re not going to believe that you’re not sitting in your favorite seafood restaurant.

This haddock recipe is so simple, I just can’t say it enough. Grab a few haddock filets like you see below (about 2 pounds) and dry them well with paper towels. You need to make sure that the fish is dry so that the topping will stay put and not slide off.

Start by seasoning the fish with salt and pepper. Make the topping by mixing together grated parmesan cheese, panko breadcrumbs, mayonnaise, Old Bay seasoning and garlic powder in a bowl.

Divide the topping up between the haddock filets and spread it out to cover the top of the fish. You should have enough to cover all of the fish with a nice thick layer like you see here in this picture below.

Some haddock filets might be thicker that others, so if you end up with more or less filets of fish you can easily make more topping if you need to. This Parmesan Crusted Haddock recipe is pretty forgiving.

Haddock should be cooked to a temperature of 145 degrees. The fish should flake easily with a fork, but still be moist and not dried out. Of course you can cook your fish a little more if you like it firmer, but you should really try it this way first because you won’t believe how delicious it is!
