Why this Baked Haddock with Ritz Cracker & Shrimp Stuffing is the perfect weeknight meal

Weeknights can get busy so it’s great when you find a simple 30 minute meal that’s delicious. This Baked Haddock Recipe checks all the boxes for me.

Haddock is a mild white fish that is usually pleasing to most pallets. Even your picky non seafood eaters will usually like it. That was definitely me as a kid! Haddock was pretty much the only seafood that I would eat.

When my kids were little I used to make Haddock with a Ritz Cracker and Lemon stuffing but recently I decided to incorporate cut of bits of shrimp. That little shrimpy addition made big flavor changes that we all fell in love with!

The best part about this Baked Haddock dish is I can literally have it prepped, baked and on the table in about 30 minutes…sometimes less when I’m on my game!

That makes this 30 minute meal the perfect weeknight meal!

The best part of living in New England 

I’ve lived in New England all of my life and there are many things that I love about it.

First of all as unpredictable as the weather can be the change of seasons is really spectacular. The bite of the bitter Winters really makes you appreciate the warmth that Summer brings. And don’t even get me started with the incredible colors of the Fall Foliage.

Whether you love being by the seaside, the solitude of the lakes and mountains or the hustle and bustle of downtown Boston, it can be found in New England. And all of it is within driving distance.

What’s the best part about living in New England? The Seafood! Clam Chowdah, Maine Lobstah and some of the freshest catches come from the New England coast. This New England Baked Haddock with Ritz Cracker & Shrimp Stuffing is definitely the quintessential New England dish that is a must make!

Should you remove the skin to make Baked Haddock?

Whether you keep the skin on or off your Haddock in this recipe is really just a preference. I kept the skin on.  However if I were making a battered haddock then I would take the skin off.

What temperature should Baked Haddock be cooked at?

I like to cook this Baked Haddock recipe at a high temperature. Usually between 400-425 degrees fahrenheit. The higher temperature will create a nice crispy top to your stuffing.
