A friend of mine teases me that I never cook, but I do. We have our favorites, and this is one of them.

If you are lucky enough to get Basa Fish in your area (Publix carries it in our area, in the freezer section), it is a delicious fish from Thailand. It has almost a nutty flavor to it.

A friend of mine came up with this recipe, which I tweaked by cutting down on the portions. She says she has tried it on other fish, and they didn't like it as well.

This is how I fix it.

>>>>>>>>>>>>>

2 pieces of Basa Fish (what comes in the freezer pack) thawed, (I put water in the outside bag and float the inside bag in it to thaw while the oven preheats.)

pepper and garlic salt the fish (I've forgotten these steps before, and it's not as good.)

2 T butter, melted, then stir in:
2 T Progresso Italian bread crumbs

Spread mixture on fish, bake at 350 for 35 minutes.

It is a favorite around here. Very quick. The kids love it. So do we. It tastes gourmet, but you can laugh at the ease of it. The friend who shared the recipe has mentioned wanting to try it with olive oil instead of butter, but I don't know that she has, and I have not tried it that way.

Let me know if you try it...and if you tried it with olive oil instead.
