Lemon Pepper Fish Greek Style Recipes

LEMON PEPPER FISH GREEK STYLE

Steps:

• Combine the garlic, oil, lemon juice, lemon zest, cracked black pepper, sea salt and the dried oregano in a large bowl. Use the bowl in which you will marinate your fish.
• Add the fish and ensure it is thoroughly coated in the marinade. Cover and refrigerate for 15-20 minutes.
• Line a broiler/griller tray with aluminium foil and place the fish on in a single layer. Broil/Grill the fish for 5-10 minutes each side. Only turn the fish once during the cooking (as you do not want it to fall apart). Grill until the fish is cooked.
• Serve with a salad or veges.

GRILLED WHOLE FISH, GREEK-STYLE

Steps:

• Preheat a grill to medium-high.
• Rinse the fish well under cold running water and pat dry with paper towels. Season the fish all over inside and out with salt and freshly ground black pepper. Brush each fish generously with 1/2 tablespoon of the olive oil and place directly on the grill. Cook, turning occasionally and coating with more olive oil if necessary, until flesh flakes easily and fish is cooked through, about 6 minutes per side. Place fish on a platter. Meanwhile, in a small bowl combine remaining olive oil with the lemon juice, parsley, and oregano. Season, to taste, with salt and pepper. Serve fish drizzled with the olive oil-lemon mixture.

LEMON & PEPPER FISH WITH ROASTED VEG

Steps:

• Toss the vegetables with the garlic, herbs, olives and oil. Season and tip onto a tray lined with baking parchment. Open-freeze the veg until solid, then transfer to a large freezer bag and put in the freezer.
• Whizz the breadcrumbs until fine, then toast for a few secs in a dry frying pan, shaking to prevent them burning. Tip into a bowl and mix with the lemon zest, pepper and a large pinch of salt. Tip into a small freezer bag and pop in the freezer. Both the vegetables and crumbs can be frozen for up to 3 months.
• To cook from frozen, heat oven to 200C/220C fan/gas 7. Tip the vegetables into a roasting tin and cook for 15 mins. Meanwhile, dust the frozen fish in flour, brush lightly with the egg and cover with the frozen breadcrumbs. Pop the fish onto a grill rack and sit above the veg. Bake for 25 mins until the fish is cooked. Serve with lemon wedges.
