This recipe is perfect for a light, satisfying meal that pairs well with a variety of sides, ideal for busy weeknights or special occasions.
- Prep Time: Spicy Haddock: For a spicy kick, add cayenne pepper or smoked paprika to the seasoning blend. Herb-Crusted: Sprinkle fresh or dried herbs like thyme, dill, or rosemary on the fillets before broiling for added flavor. Cheese Topping: Add grated Parmesan cheese on top of the haddock during the last minute of broiling for a golden, cheesy crust. Grilling Option: Grill the haddock for a smoky flavor, using a grill-safe pan or foil to prevent the fish from falling apart. Flavorful Tip: Marinate the haddock in olive oil, lemon, and herbs for 15-30 minutes before broiling for an extra burst of flavor.

Ingredients

- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
- Lemon wedges (optional, for serving)
Instructions
- Preheat the Broiler: Preheat your oven’s broiler on high and position the oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source.
- Prepare the Haddock: Pat the haddock fillets dry with paper towels to remove excess moisture and help the seasoning adhere better.
- Season the Fish: In a small bowl, combine olive oil, lemon juice, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Brush the mixture evenly over both sides of the haddock fillets.
- Broil the Haddock: Place the seasoned fillets on a broiler-safe pan or baking sheet lined with foil. Broil the haddock for 4-6 minutes per side, or until golden brown and the fish flakes easily with a fork.
