1 lb. fresh or frozen fish fillets or steaks or three 10-12 oz. fresh or frozen pan-dressed trout or other fish
1 beaten egg
1/4 c. fine dry bread crumbs
1/4 c. butter, melted
1 tbsp. lemon juice

Thaw fish, if frozen. If using a fillet block, cut block into 3 portions. Dip fish into beaten egg, then into bread crumbs. Place coated fish in a well greased, shallow baking pan. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Drizzle a mixture of melted butter and lemon juice over fish. Bake in at 500 degree oven until golden and fish flakes easily when tested with a fork. Allow 5-6 minutes for each 1/2 inch of thickness. Makes 3 servings.
