A delightful seafood dish featuring haddock fillets topped with a flavorful crab and cracker stuffing.
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Preheating ensures even cooking from the start.
Lay the haddock fillets in a baking dish.
Ensure the fillets are evenly spaced for uniform cooking.
Drizzle the fillets with lemon juice and dot with small pieces of butter.
The butter will melt and create a rich sauce for the fish.
In a mixing bowl, combine the crushed crackers, crabmeat, melted butter, and parsley.
Mix gently to keep the crabmeat in chunks for better texture.
Spread the stuffing mixture evenly over the haddock fillets.
Press lightly to ensure the stuffing adheres to the fish.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork.
Check the fish at 20 minutes to avoid overcooking.
Serve the baked haddock hot, garnished with a sprinkle of fresh parsley if desired.
Serve with lemon wedges for an extra burst of flavor.
