1½ pounds fresh flounder fillets (such as cod or sole)
3 tablespoons lemon juice
½ teaspoons minced onions
1 teaspoon chopped parsley
½ teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon black pepper
1 teaspoons paprika
2 teaspoon sliced almonds
SAUCE
½ teaspoon cornstarch
3 tablespoons fish liquid from bake fish
1 tablespoon butter
¼ cup water
½ teaspoon garlic powder

Sprinkle fish with lemon juice. Lay ½ of the fillet in a greased 8X8 inch shallow baking dish.
Using half the minced onions, parsley, salt, black pepper sprinkle it on the fish.
Lay the second half of the fillet on top.
Now, sprinkle the remaining spice on top of the fillet along with the paprika, and sliced almonds.
