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:
- Whisk together melted butter, lemon juice, zest and salt.
- Arrange your fresh sablefish fillets skin side down in a large baking dish lined with parchment paper.
- Brush lemon butter mixture evenly over the fillet.
- Bake in a preheated 400 F oven for about 15 minutes.
- 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.
- When the fillet is cooked through, turn the oven to broil and brown the top of the sablefish for about 4-5 minutes.
- Serve with rice, roasted potatoes or a big salad. Enjoy!
