- 25g / 1oz melted butter
- 3 tbsp chopped parsley
- zest of 1 lemon
- 1-2 tbsp olive oil
Method
- Preheat the oven to 200C/400F/Gas 6.
- Place the fish on to a board, skinned side uppermost and brush with the melted butter. Season.
- Place 15g/½oz Brie cheese on top of each fish. Roll up and place into a greased, ovenproof dish. Brush with any remaining butter.
- Prepare the topping: in a small bowl mix the breadcrumbs, parsley, lemon zest and olive oil together. Spoon over the fish.
