Whitefish fillets (Pollock, Orange Roughy, Cod, Halibut, etc)

FRUITS & VEGGIES
2 Lemons
1 White Onion
2 Bunches Cilantro

PREP
Pre heat oven to 325ยบ. Lightly grease a glass baking dish with butter, add the fillets (fresh or frozen) season with salt and pepper. Thinly slice the onions and one lemon and place them over the fillets, juice the other lemon and pour over the lot, cover with foil and bake for 20 minutes. Carefully peel back the foil and add generous amounts of fresh cilantro, recover and continue baking until the fish is done. The reason I add the cilantro last is so that it retains a nice bright green color.
