Baked line fish 1

One of my favorite fish recipes. 10mn to prepare, 30mn to cook. When you come home only an hour before your guests put the fish in the oven, new potatoes to boil, wash a handful of rocket for each plate and set the table. You would even have time to refresh yourself. Enjoy your simple but faboulous dinner ending with an ice cream from the freezer...




EASY BAKED LINE FISH (serves 4)
-1000-1200gr of sea bream or any firm meat, medium size whole line fish(gutted and clean) or use 2x 500gr farm fish
-1lime or half a lemon, juiced
-2 spring onion, chopped
-few sprigs of fresh herbs like parsley, dill or chervil, chopped
-1 clove of garlic, lightly crushed
-4tbs olive oil
-4tbs ouzo or sambuca or pernod
-4tbs cold water
-extra olive oil to drizzle
-salt and pepper
Brush an oven tray with 1tbs of olive oil. Blend the rest of the olive oil, lemon or lime juice, the spirit and the greens to form a smooth paste. Make five incisions on each side of the fish and place it on the tray. Spoon the mixture generously on both sides, and don't forget the cavity. Bake for 35 to 40mn. in 200’ oven. Delicious!
Serve with new potatoes and seasonal vegetables.
