Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces White fish fillets (e.g., cod, haddock, or tilapia)
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2 teaspoons Montreal steak seasoning
- 1 whole Lemon
- 2 cloves Garlic (minced)
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley (chopped, optional)
- 0.25 teaspoons Salt
- 0.25 teaspoons Black pepper
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it with olive oil.
Place the white fish fillets on the prepared baking sheet, ensuring they are spread out in a single layer.
Drizzle the olive oil evenly over the fish fillets to coat them lightly.
Sprinkle the Montreal steak seasoning, minced garlic, a pinch of salt, and black pepper evenly over each fillet for flavor.
Cut the lemon in half. Squeeze the juice from one half over the fish fillets, ensuring an even distribution. Slice the other half into thin rounds for garnish.
Bake the fish in the preheated oven for 12–15 minutes, or until it flakes easily with a fork and reaches an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C).
Remove the baking sheet from the oven and let the fish rest for 2 minutes.
Garnish the baked fish with fresh parsley and lemon slices if desired. Serve immediately alongside your favorite sides, such as roasted vegetables or rice.
