Print Wulf's Kitchen: Not your Grandma’s Baked Haddock
Serves: 2-4
Prep Time: 10 min
Cook Time: 15 min
Difficulty: EasyNew England style breaded baked fish is a classic for a reason – it's simple, comforting, and if you grew up in these parts, it’s nostalgic, too. But there’s nothing wrong with messing around with a classic to improve it a little bit. This dish does that – it packs in extra flavor by adding cheese, garlic, and cayenne. But no matter how spicy you like it, it’s still a nice baked fish like Grandma use to make.

For The Breading
- 1 cup crushed Ritz crackers
- ¼ cup crushed fried onions (the kind in a can)
