Herbed "Baked" Fish



Herbed "Baked" Fish was the entree for tonight's dinner.  So simple and flavorful it was quite fabulous!  And I can not stress how easy it was!  Basic concept - take fish (we used flounder, could be talapia, wahoo, striped bass).  Dip in egg white was and coat with herb mixture.   Pan fry in either cooking spray or a bit of butter - hence the "Baked" not fried.  So GOOD!
Recipe adapted from wholeliving.com

  • 1 cup mixed fresh soft herbs (sage, parsley, basil, chives), coarsely chopped

  • Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper

  • Four 4-ounce striped bass or rockfish fillets, skin off

  • 1 egg white, lightly whisked



    1. Herb mixture - I used Basil, Garlic Salt, Parsley, and Oregano
    2. Spread the herbs and salt and pepper on a large platter. Brush each fillet with the egg white, then dredge in the herbs.
    3. In a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat, sear the fillets 3 to 4 minutes per side, or until cooked through and the flesh just begins to flake.

    Served with a simple salad and Creamy Garlic Penne Pasta.
