   Cut the fish into two pieces and marinate in the lemon juice in a bowl for 10-15 minutes.

2. 2

   Preheat oven (toaster over) to 425F.

3. 3

   Melt 2 T butter in a 1/2 qt baking dish in the oven. Remove and add the fish, coating it with the butter, and then add in the lemon juice.

   Add 2 T butter to top the fish and bake for 10 minutes.

5. 5

   Remove from oven; top with herb(s), cayenne, and cheese. Add 2 more T of butter and bake an additional 10 minutes. Cheese should be crusted and the liquid simmering.

   Remove to plate. Spoon over a bit of the hot liquid. Dust with parsley.

   I have been cooking fish for a long time. Coating it... baking it... pan frying it... but this is simply astoundingly good (as it is astoundingly simple)
