FAST AND TASTY FLOUNDER

1-2 flounder fillets per family member (these are usually thin)
4 Tbsp. butter, melted
2-3 green onions, chopped
dry bread crumbs
salt and pepper to taste
juice of 1/2 lemon
paprika (optional)

Preheat oven to 375 degrees.

Dip the fish fillets in the melted butter, and place on a foil-lined baking pan. Sprinkle fillets with the green onions (spreading them evenly), salt, pepper, and lemon juice. (You can just squeeze this over the top as you go). Top with a fine coating of bread crumbs. Dust on a little paprika. (This is to make it look professional).

Bake the fish for 10 minutes, or until it flakes easily with a fork. Serve immediately.
