For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a pinch of garlic powder or onion powder to the breadcrumb mixture. Ensure the baking dish is well-greased to prevent sticking and promote even browning. Serve immediately with a squeeze of fresh lemon juice and your favorite sides for a complete and satisfying meal.
