Italian Style Baked Halibut

Another recipe I recreated from a dish that Moe use to order in the same restaurant that the Gorgonzola Garlic Bread came from. I think they used haddock but I substituted Halibut.

The fish is topped with tomatoes, basil and seasoned bread crumbs with Parmesan cheese and baked in a casserole with butter and lemon.
