Oven Baked Fish Fillets are easy to prepare, can be made in advance, baked with a crunchy topping or just simply seasoned, low in calories and so versatile.

You can bake fish in the oven with breadcrumbs, or even with a delicious lemon sauce. 

For example, if you have some fresh lemon juice and sliced lemons, you can create a great dish.

If you are looking for a quick and easy way to bake fish in the oven, then why not try cooking it in foil? You can add herbs, spices, and vegetables to the foil before closing it up.

Baked potatoes with sweet peppers and garlic are also a great option.
