"Fish and chips" take on a whole new meaning with this easy Italian-inspired baked fish dish.

Ingredients

Combine; Toss with Melted Butter:

1/2 cup Coarse bread crumbs

1/2 cup Parmesan cheese, grated

1/2 cup Plain potato chips, crushed

1/2 t. Paprika

1/4 t. Cayenne

2 t. Unsalted butter, melted

Sprinkle:

1 t. Scallion, thinly sliced

Serve with:

Lemon wedges

Preparation

Preheat oven to 450°.

Combine first four ingredients in a bowl. Spread on a baking sheet coated with cooking spray.

Arrange fillets on top of vegetables; season with salt and pepper to taste.

Combine crumbs and next four ingredients; toss with melted butter. Divide crumb mixture evenly over each fillet, pressing into the fish. Bake 20 minutes, or until fillets flake easily when tested with a fork.

Sprinkle with scallion.

Serve with lemon wedges.

Cook's Notes

Fish Options: Flounder, tilapia, and other flat fish fillets work just fine. Cooking time runs about 10 minutes for each inch of thickness (that includes the tomato layer and breading).
