When it comes to fish, my husband loves fish more than I do. I make fish in various ways using a combination of perfect ingredients. So, you are in the ideal place for fish recipes. I have over 200 fish recipes on YouTube. Check it out.
Why Basa Fillets?
Basa fillets are rich in omega-3 fatty acids. Due to its low calorie, it's perfect for those on a diet, unlike other white fish. It has a similar taste to cod and haddock.
What is the best fish to use?
- Cod
- Salmon
- Halibut
- Basa
- Tilapia
- Tuna
- Red Snapper
If you're craving something with a bit more richness, try the juicy oven baked tilapia, which boasts a succulent texture that’s hard to resist. For a coastal twist, the easy Mediterranean baked tilapia offers a bright, herbaceous profile that complements the simplicity of this dish. Alternatively, for those who love a bit of zest, the oven baked cod with lemon and garlic is an excellent choice to add to your repertoire of baked fish recipes.
You can either use fresh or frozen fish. Fresh fish has a better texture; if frozen, thoroughly thaw and pat dry to get rid of extra moisture or water, making it soggy.
Fish fillets can be served with sides like rice, veggies, and potatoes.
How to prevent Fish Fillet from sticking to grill or baking pan:
This is one question I am being asked often on Youtube, it's so frustrating when you take all the time to prep and season fish then it ends up sticking to the pan. Create a barrier between pan and fish by:
- Lining the pan with a baking sheet, and parchment paper, before placing the fish. Grease the baking sheets with a thin layer of cooking oil or mist of cooking spray.
- Suspend fish in a baking pan by putting lemon slices or veggies beneath.
