- Bake in preheated oven until fish flakes easily with fork, about 10 minutes.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F. Grease a shallow baking dish large enough to hold the fish in a single layer. Combine the flour, salt, and lemon pepper seasoning in a shallow dish. Beat the egg white until frothy and place in another shallow dish. Combine the bread crumbs, cornmeal, lemon zest, and basil (or dill) in another shallow dish. Dip one side only of the fish into the flour mixture, shaking off any excess. Dip the same side into the egg white then into the bread crumb mixture. Press the bread crumbs so they adhere. Place the fish coating side up in the baking dish. Tuck any thin edges of the fish underneath the fillet so they don't overcook. Place the fish in the oven and bake at 450 degrees F for 6-12 minutes (depends on thickness of the fillets), or until the fish flakes easily with a fork. Serve hot.
