FILLET OF FISH AU GRATIN


1- 1 1/2 lbs. fresh fish fillets of choice 
1/4 c. fine dry bread crumbs 
1 tsp. dried dillweed 
1/2 tsp. dried tarragon, crushed 
1/2 tsp. lemon-pepper seasoning 
4-6 Tbsp. butter, softened
1 c. sharp cheddar cheese, grated

Preheat oven to 400 degrees.

Cut fish fillets into serving pieces. Rinse fish and pat dry with paper towels. Place fish fillets in a lightly sprayed shallow baking dish. Place a tablespoon of butter on each fillet, and spread over fish surface. Set aside.

In a small bowl, combine bread crumbs, dillweed, tarragon, and lemon-pepper seasoning. Spoon bread crumb mixture over fish. Bake, uncovered, for 15 to 20 minutes or until fish flakes easily with a fork. Sprinkle with cheese; bake an additional 3 to 5 minutes, or until cheese melts. Remove from oven and serve immediately.
