Servings: persons

4 tablespoons breadcrumbs
4 tablespoons red bell peppers, finely chopped
4 tablespoons yellow bell peppers, finely chopped
2 green onions, finely chopped
8 tablespoons butter, melted
2 (6 ounce) cans crabmeat, drained and flaked
2 tablespoons mozzarella cheese, shredded
2 tablespoons parmesan cheese, shredded
1/8 cup olive oil
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes (optional)
4 (6 ounce) grouper fillets

1
Preheat your oven to 375*F.
2
Line a medium baking dish with tin foil and brush lightly with olive oil.
3
In a medium bowl, combine the first 8 items and set aside.
4
Using a pastry brush, lightly brush each side of the fillets with remaining olive oil and sprinkle with salt. (For spicier fish, add a tiny sprinkle of crushed red pepper here.).
5
Put the fillets in the dish, evenly spaced apart.
6
Top the fillets with the cheese and pepper mixture.
7
Bake for 30 minutes until fish flakes easily with a fork.
8
NOTE: If you want, ( I sometimes do, I sometimes don't) you can broil the fish on low for about 1-2 minutes after baking time, to crisp up the crust on top. However, watch the ENTIRE TIME you have them under the broiler -- they will burn easily!
