Salt and pepper
2 Cupps shredded zucchini
3 Tablespoons grated Parmesan chees, divided
2 Tablespoons fine dry bread crumbs
1 Tablespoon each: finely chopped parsley and green onion

Combine zucchini, 2 T. parmesan cheese, bread crumbs, parsely, green onion and basil; salt and pepper to taste. Arrange zucchini mixture around fish to form a nest. Sprinkle with wine. Sprinkle fish with remaining parmesan cheese.

Bake at 450* allowing 10 minutes cooking time per inch thickness of fish measured after folding or until fish flakes when tested with a fork. Make 2 serving.

I have done this in one baking dish also. I have also done it in the microwave when it was already to go in the oven and the oven didn't work. I won't take as long in the microwave so keep an eye on it.
