Fish Recipe: Do you think it will work?

Posted on Jul 30, 2011 under Cooking Light Recipe

I have four fillets of haddock and 5 of cod. To be cooked together.

Bake at 400 degrees F

- Apply a light coat of margarine on either side of each fillet.
-Sprinkle salt, pepper, and oregano on each side. Lay side by side in a wrap of aluminum foil in a casserole dish.
-Add chopped onions for taste.
-Cover fish with foil completely. Place in oven and broil at 400 degrees F

When fish is an opaque shade of creamy white, its done. Take out and enjoy!

I am planning on cooking fish this way this evening but have never done it before. DO you think it will turn out okay?

There are a few mistakes, but that because you haven’t thought out what you are doing.
400F is far too high. Set at 350F
Lightly grease the first sheet of foil with butter or oil and lay out the seasoned fillets, both sides.
Spread out the onions, I would use sliced onion rings.
Dot with butter and cover with the second sheet of foil.
Bake for about 20 minutes ( not broil).
Carefully open and check to see if they are opaque as they may require a little more time. They will be hot, so watch for the steam.
You can do very much the same thing for individual serves in pockets, and add finely sliced carrots and spuds and either baked, ot thrown on the BBQ.
At a party or a trailer picnic cook out the foil pocket can serve as a plate with appropriate sides.
It is a great way to cook fish as they tend to steam and stay moist.

If you cover it with foil, you won’t really be getting the broiling effect of a crispy outside. It would be better to just set the oven to ‘Bake’, rather than ‘Broil’ Other than that, it sounds good.
