This is so good! I used 1T lemon juice, 2 cloves garlic, and marinated the fish overnight in everything except the breadcrumbs and butter. Before going in the oven, I added the breadcrumbs and melted about 1T butter (and drizzled over the fish). I would recommend baking for 12-13 minutes then broiling for 3-4 minutes (just to get the crumbs nice and crispy). This is a definite keeper.

Very tasty, but the regular breadcrumbs never got crunchy and Panko may be a better choice. I found myself scraping most of the breadcrumbs off as I was eating because they were piled on too thick and still granular, like flavored sand. I'd either use Panko or just treat the regular breadcrumbs like any of the other seasonings- by using a small amount instead of the 1/3 cup, because they won't solidify into a breading or crust at all. Actually, this recipe works great without any bread crumbs- the butter, garlic, thyme etc. add plenty of flavor on their own.
