(My apologies but I completely forgot to take a pic of the fish in the oven tray!)
- 4 red fish fillets
- 1/4 cup butter
- 1 teaspoon cayenne pepper
- 1 teaspoon freshly ground pepper
- 1 teaspoon lemon pepper (I used a mix of fried lemon and herbs)
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 + 1/4 cups lemon juice, one tablespoon white wine and a drizzle of olive oil (the original recipe had Italian seasoning but that's unheard of here in Portugal)
- Slices of lemon to garnish
1. Melt butter and let it cool to room temperature.
2. Coat red fish with the butter, then coat with the seasoning mix.
3. Heat oven to 180ºC. Heat a large skillet on the stove top.
4. Brown red fish on the skillet under high heat.
5. Put the fish in an oven tray, pour the lemon, wine, olive oil on it and a place one lemon slice on top of each fillet. Cover and roast, covered, for 30 minutes.
Happy cooking!
