Steps:

• 1.Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. 2.Place the fillets and zucchini in a buttered baking dish. 3.Brush the tops with juice. 4.Bake fish in preheated oven 20 to 30 minutes or until fish just starts to flake. 5.Meanwhile, combine the cheese, butter, mayonnaise, onions and seasonings in a bowl. Mix well with fork. 6.When the fish is ready, spread the top with the cheese mixture and turn on the broiler or high heat, and bake until golden brown (about 5 minutes). *Baking time will depend on the thickness of the fish you use. Watch the fish closely so that it does not overcook.

Steps:

• In a small bowl or jar with a lid, make the spice blend. Mix together the paprika, onion powder, garlic powder, white pepper, black pepper, cayenne pepper, oregano, thyme, celery seed and kosher salt. Coat the fish fillets with the spice mixture, and allow to sit at room temperature for no longer than 30 minutes.
• Heat a heavy skillet over high heat. Add oil, and heat until it is almost smoking. Place the fillets in the pan, and cook for about 3 minutes per side, or until fish is opaque and can be flaked with a fork. Remove from the pan, and place onto slices of white bread. Pour pan juices over them and squeeze lemon juice all over. Do not underestimate the white bread. It gets quite tasty soaking up all the juices.
