Ingredients:

4 x 150g monkfish fillets, skinned and boned
3 tbsp. Dijon mustard
4 tbsp. Italian-style dry breadcrumbs
Salt and pepper
50g melted butter

Directions:

Season the breadcrumbs. Lay the fish on a lined baked tray.
Brush each fillet with the mustard, season with salt and pepper, then sprinkle with the breadcrumbs.
Drizzle the butter over the fish fillets, then bake in a 200C oven for 10 minutes or until the fish flakes easily.

If you want a stronger mustard flavour, use grainy mustard instead of Dijon mustard. Recipe serves 4.
