Barramundi With Lemon Basil Sauce image

Barramundi has been available quite often in my local supermarket. This recipe would also be good with tilapia. The butter-lemon-basil sauce is also good over brown rice.

The sauce was a bit too overpowering for my taste. I would suggest using less lemon and basil.

Easy to follow recipe with a delicious outcome. I added a bit of extra lemon zest to the sauce for a brighter flavor.

Followed the recipe exactly and the result was amazing. The fish was moist and flaky, and the sauce was creamy and tangy. Highly recommended!
