For a richer flavor, try using brown butter instead of regular butter in the breadcrumb topping.
Add a squeeze of fresh lemon juice to the breadcrumb mixture for brightness.
If you don't have fresh dill, 1 teaspoon of dried dill can be substituted. However, fresh is highly recommended for the best flavor.
Feel free to experiment with other herbs such as chives, oregano, or thyme.
To prevent the breadcrumbs from burning, tent the dish with foil during the last 5-10 minutes of baking if needed.
