• 1/4 teaspoon paprika
• 1/4 teaspoon lemon-pepper seasoning
• 4 cod fillets (6 ounces/ 170 g each) (any fin fish can be used)
• 2 tablespoons minced fresh parsley
• 2 teaspoons grated lemon zest

INSTRUCTIONS

1. Preheat oven to 400°F/ 200°C. In a shallow bowl, mix lemon juice and oil. In a separate shallow bowl, mix flour and seasonings. Dip fillets in lemon juice mixture, then in flour mixture to coat both sides; shake off excess.

Test Kitchen Tips

 Tilapia, catfish, haddock, cod and other lean types of fish may be frozen for up to 6 months. Oily fish, such as mackerel, salmon and grouper, shouldn’t be frozen for more than 3 months.

 Go for freshly squeezed lemon juice when preparing this dish. Bottled lemon juice, which is from concentrate, won’t provide the same bright, fresh flavour. Buy four lemons to get the job done.

FISHPOUCH

INGREDIENTS
1 Firm-fleshed white-fish fillet, such as halibut, cod, haddock, snapper (the fillet should be between 2 – 3 cm thick) 1(6-ounce)
2 Extra-virgin olive oil 1 tsp
3 Freshly ground black pepper 2-3 pinches
5 Finely chopped ginger 1 tsp
6 Finely chopped garlic 1 tsp
7 Bokchoy 1 bunch
8 Fresh herbs, such as chives, parsley, tarragon, or chervil
10 Thin lemon slices 3
11 chopped walnuts 30 gm

INSTRUCTIONS
1. Heat the oven to 400°F/200°C and arrange a rack in the middle.
2. Draw out a large piece of parchment paper about 60 cm and, with one of the longer edges closest you, fold it in half from left to right. Using scissors, cut out a large heart shape.
3. Place the fish in the centre of one half of the parchment heart. (The heart should be large enough that there is at least a 5 cm border around the fillet.)
4. Set the parchment heart on a baking sheet. Drizzle the fish with half of the olive oil, rub the oil all over the fillet, and season with ginger and pepper.
5. Lay half of the bay leaf and a few sprigs of herbs (if using) on top of the fish. Arrange them on top of the herbs.
6. Place the lemon slices over everything and drizzle with the remaining oil.
7. Fold the parchment heart over to cover the fish. (The edges of the heart should line up.) Starting at the rounded end, crimp the edges together, folding them over themselves and leaving the last 5 cm at the pointed end unfolded. Slightly tilt the package up and pour in the wine or water. Finish crimping the edges, then twist the pointed end around once and fold the “tail” under.
8. Place the baking sheet in the oven and bake 10 minutes for a 2 cm fillet or 12 minutes for a thicker fillet.
9. Remove the baking sheet from the oven and transfer the parchment package to a dinner plate. Serve immediately, cutting into the parchment tableside using scissors or a knife.

COD WITH LEMON AND OLIVES

• 3/4 – 1 lb 400 gms cod (Any oily fin fish can be used)
• 1/4 cup white wine
• juice and zest of 1 lemon
• 1 cup assorted olives
• 1 to 2 Tbsp capers, drained

• 1/2 tsp red pepper flakes
• olive oil
• fresh parsley

INSTRUCTIONS

1. Set oven to 400F/200C
2. Lay out the fish in a pan with sides, or a casserole dish. Add the wine and lemon juice to the pan.
3. Scatter the olives and capers around, then sprinkle everything with the ginger and pepper, red pepper flakes, and zest.
4. Drizzle with olive oil and bake for about 20-30 minutes until the fish flakes and is done through. The exact time will depend on your oven, and the thickness of your fish. Use your judgement, the fish is done when it is opaque throughout, and flakes when you cut it open.
