Oven Baked Lemon Sablefish

  Ingredients:

  • 1½ lbs. fresh Sablefish Fillets
  • 1 Tbsp melted Butter
  • ½ tsp Sea Salt
  • Zest of 1 Lemon (around 2 tsp)
  • 1 Tbsp fresh Lemon Juice

Directions:

  1. Whisk together melted butter, lemon juice, zest and salt.
  2. Arrange your fresh sablefish fillets skin side down in a large baking dish lined with parchment paper.
  3. Brush lemon butter mixture evenly over the fillet.
  4. Bake in a preheated 400 F oven for about 15 minutes.
  5. When 15 minutes have passed, check fillets.  Flesh should easily flake with a fork and be an opaque white colour.  If the fillets are still a little translucent, or if you aren't sure they are ready, leave them in the oven for a further 5-10 minutes.  It is very hard to over-cook sablefish, so don't worry about drying it out.
  6. When the fillet is cooked through, turn the oven to broil and brown the top of the sablefish for about 4-5 minutes.
  7. Serve with rice, roasted potatoes or a big salad. Enjoy!
