Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces white fish fillets (such as cod, haddock, or tilapia)
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 3 cloves garlic cloves, minced
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
- 1 tablespoon fresh dill, chopped
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoons ground black pepper
- 4 slices lemon slices
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Pat the fish fillets dry with paper towels and season both sides with salt and black pepper.
In a small saucepan over low heat, melt the butter. Add the minced garlic and cook for 1-2 minutes until fragrant, being careful not to burn it.
Remove the saucepan from heat and mix in the chopped parsley, dill, and lemon juice.
Brush a baking dish or sheet with olive oil to prevent the fish from sticking. Place the fish fillets in the dish, leaving a bit of space between each piece.
Spoon the garlic herb butter mixture evenly over each fillet, ensuring they are well coated.
Top each fillet with a lemon slice for added flavor.
Bake the fish in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes or until the fish flakes easily with a fork.
Remove from the oven, garnish with additional fresh herbs if desired, and serve immediately.
Pair with steamed vegetables, rice, or a fresh salad for a complete meal!
