PREHEAT oven to 375 degrees and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or foil (easy clean up!). Spray foil with oil.
Drizzle fillets with olive oil and juice from 1 lemon. Season with salt, pepper and cayenne pepper (if using).
Bake 15 to 20 minutes or until the fish flakes when tested with a fork.

Bacon Fish Topping Yes, this fish topping has bacon in it!
Ingredients :
1 bacon strip, cooked when fish bakes, drained and cut into very small pieces 3 TBS unsalted butter (if salted, you don't need to add extra salt) 1 tsp dried parsley 1 tsp dried basil 1/4 tsp garlic powder (more overpowers flavor, unless you love it) pinch of salt Instructions :
Mix well in a small bowl and keep in the refrigerator until the fish is ready to be served. Then dollop on top of each fillet. If you do this with a small cookie scoop, the presentation is beautiful.
Serve with mashed potatoes (or even better) loaded mashed potatoes . Frozen sweet peas would be great addition too.
