📝 Preparation Steps
1
Preheat the oven to 400°F. Lightly grease a baking dish with butter.
butter (melted, plus more for greasing the dish)5 tablespoons
2
Pat the fish fillets dry with paper towels, then arrange in a single layer in the baking dish. If the fillets are very thin, tuck the end pieces under to make it more even. Season lightly with salt and black pepper.

3
In a bowl, combine the crushed Ritz crackers, garlic powder, Old Bay seasoning, and melted butter, then mix until the crumbs are evenly coated.

4
Spoon the cracker mixture evenly over each fillet and gently press so it adheres. Try your best to keep all of the cracker crumbs on top of the fish or else they will get soggy.
5
Pour the white wine into the bottom of the baking dish around the fish, not over the top.
6
Bake until the fish is opaque and flakes easily and the topping is golden brown, about ⏱️ 15-20 minutes depending on thickness. If needed, broil for ⏱️ 1-2 minutes at the end to deepen the color.
7
Sprinkle with parsley, then serve immediately with lemon wedges on the side.
