I've used a few difference types of fish for this recipe with Blue Grenadier being the cheapest to buy on most occasions. Here's what you need -
Aluminium foil
Baking paper ( not waxed )
Canola or olive oil spray
Long oven tray
Fish
Butter
2 lemons - one sliced, one juiced
Seasoning to taste. I use salt, pepper, garlic, paprika and parsley
Tear off a long piece of foil and lay flat on the baking tray.
Tear off a slightly smaller piece of baking paper and lay on top of the foil.
Lightly spray the baking paper with canola or olive oil.
Lay the fish in the middle of the baking paper length ways
Drizzle the lemon juice over the fish
Season the fish to taste with your choice of seasonings
Add a couple of knobs of butter to each piece of fish
Lay the sliced lemon on top of the butter.
Bring the long sides of the foil and baking paper together in the middle and fold over a couple of times.
Then fold the short ends of the foil to form a sealed parcel.
Bake in the oven on 180 degrees Celsius for 20 minutes then check to see if the fish is cooked.
Serve with rice, steamed vegetables or a salad.
Use some of the juices from the fish to pour over the fish or rice when serving.
Hi Wendy,
ReplyDeleteI also do Fish this way. Do you wrap each piece of fish in the foil as I do mine all together and sometimes think this maybe wrong, not sure. When Blue Grenadier is on special ($8.00 - $10.00), I feed our family of four with this fish for around $5.00-$6.00, cheaper than the fish and chip shop, and nicer.
Thanks,
Maureen
I do them separately to speed up the cooking process.
DeleteDear Wendy,
ReplyDeleteThis is a great way to cook fish. And you are right it would be an easy meal option on a busy night. I will keep this in mind from now on.
Thank you for sharing,
Love Tania xx
Haha fancy seeing this after I made my fish in foil LoL...
ReplyDeleteI might try this recipe now :D thank you Wendy xxx
Hi Wendy, I'm wondering if the Aldi frozen 1kg bag of skinless Hoki fish fillets for I believe about $12 is good value & if you've used that before?
ReplyDeleteI haven't used the Aldi fish but at $12.99 a kilo, that would be the most I'd pay.
