1 cup dried bread crumbs
1/2 teaspoon seafood seasoning (such as Old Bay®)

1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon onion powder

Prep time: 15 min
Cook time: 20 min
Instructions:
Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).

Brush fish with olive oil.

Mix bread crumbs, seafood seasoning, garlic powder, onion powder, lemon zest, and thyme together in a bowl. Press fish in bread crumb mixture to coat all sides. Arrange coated fish on a baking sheet.

Bake in the preheated oven for 10 minutes. Flip fish and continue baking until fish flakes easily with a fork, about 10 minutes more.

Stir butter, lemon juice, white wine, and basil together in a bowl; drizzle over cooked fish.
