Happy hump day foodies.
Coming up for dinner is baked catfish. I remember the first catfish I ate was at @smoothcecilia_misi mum house 😋 ( the good old days when your mum used to have parties. Look at us now all grown up mothers and responsible 😂). Any way, here is the marinade I came up with. I used dried herbs because I have run out of fresh one but I usually prefer using fresh herbs with fish.
Ingredients I Used:
My fish is 1.2 kg
👩🏾🍳 1/4 cup Extra virgin olive oil.
👩🏾🍳 1/4 cup fresh minced onion.
👩🏾🍳 1 unwaxed lemon ( juice and zest).
👩🏾🍳 4 minced garlic cloves.
👩🏾🍳 1tablespoon dark soy sauce.
👩🏾🍳 1 tablespoon Chipotle chilli flakes.
👩🏾🍳 1 teaspoon grated ginger.
👩🏾🍳 1 teaspoon dried coriander leaves.
👩🏾🍳 1 teaspoon dried parsley.
👩🏾🍳 1 teaspoon smoked paprika.
👩🏾🍳 1 teaspoon dried dill.
👩🏾🍳 1 teaspoon dried oregano.
👩🏾🍳 1/2 teaspoon nutmeg.
👩🏾🍳 Salt and black pepper to taste.
Let me just tell you, fingers were licked 😋😋😋. This fish came out so juicy and busting with flavours.
So I seasoned the fish with the marinade from previous post and let it marinate in the fridge for 2 hours than place it on the bed of vegetables and baked in preheated oven at 180°c fan oven or 200° c for non fan oven for 50 minutes turn halfway through cooking.
🧡 Happy cooking. Please share and invite other foodies to come join us. 🧡
