Prepare the white fish fillets, leaving the skin on, and cut them into portions.

7

Salt the fish fillets and break up any pockets of juice to release flavor.

8

In a bowl, combine white wine, salt, and crushed garlic to create a sauce.

Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes until the fish is cooked and the topping is crunchy.
