Best 9 Green Roasted Fish Fillets Recipes

SKILLET-ROASTED FISH FILLETS WITH GREEN OLIVE RELISH

Steps:

• Adjust oven rack to middle position and heat oven to 425 degrees.
• Dry fish thoroughly with paper towels and season with salt and pepper.
• Sprinkle very lightly with dusting of sugar (about 1/8 tsp) evenly over each side of fillet.
• Heat oil in large ovensafe nonstick skillet over high heat until smoking.
• Place fillets in skillet, sugared sides down, and press lightly to ensure even contact with pan.
• Cook until browned, 1 to 1 1/2 minutes.
• Using 2 spatulas, flip fillets and transfer skillet to oven.
• Roast fillets until centers are just opaque and register 135 degrees (7-10 minutes).
• Immediately transfer to serving plates and top with relish.
• Relish: Process almonds, olives, garlic, and zest in food processor until nuts and olives are finely chopped, (10-12 one-second pulses). Transfer to bowl and stir in orange juice, vinegar, olive oil, and mint. Season to taste with salt and cayenne; serve spooned over fish.

SEA BASS WITH ROASTED TOMATOES AND GREEN BEANS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400°F. Spray large rimmed baking sheet with nonstick spray. Combine tomatoes, onion, and garlic on prepared sheet. Drizzle with extra-virgin olive oil; toss to coat. Spread in even layer. Sprinkle generously with salt and pepper. Roast until onion begins to brown, stirring occasionally, about 35 minutes.
• Remove baking sheet from oven; increase temperature to 450°F. Mix beans, curry and ginger into tomato mixture; top with fish. Sprinkle fish with salt and pepper. Spoon some tomato mixture over fish. Roast until fish are just opaque in center, about 18 minutes. Transfer fish to plates, spooning tomato mixture over.

BAKED FISH FILLETS WITH GREEN CHILES

Steps:

• 1. Preheat the oven broiler. Roast the chiles on the top oven shelf until charred and blistered all over, about 5 minutes. Transfer to a plastic bag and let steam 6 to 8 minutes. 2. Lower the oven temperature to 400°. Peel the chiles and remove the stems. Discard the seeds. Rinse the chiles and cut into 1/2-inch pieces. Put in a bowl. 3. With a mortar and pestle, in a small bowl with a heavy wooden spoon or (briefly) in a food processor, crush the sunflower seeds, garlic, and pepper together. Put in the bowl with the chiles. Add the olive oil and capers. 4. Put the fish on a foil-lined baking sheet. Season lightly with salt. Spread the chile mixture evenly on top of each fillet. Bake the fish without turning, 10 to 12 minutes, or until the flesh is opaque but still moist inside and just barely flakes when tested with a fork. Garnish with cherry tomatoes and lime wedges.From "1,000 Mexican Recipes." Copyright 2001 by Marge Poore. Used with permission of the publisher, Wiley Publishing, Inc. All Rights Reserved.

SEARED FISH WITH CRISPY POTATOES AND GREEN SAUCE

Steps:

• In a large saucepan, cover 2 pounds small red new potatoes (about 21) with cold water; season with coarse salt. Bring to a boil, reduce to a simmer, and cook just until tender when pierced with a paring knife, about 15 minutes. If saving for another day, drain and let cool; then cover and refrigerate for later use.
• Preheat oven to 475 degrees. Lightly oil a rimmed baking sheet. Smash each potato with the base of your palm and place on sheet. Drizzle with 2 tablespoons oil; season with salt and pepper. Roast until crisp, about 20 minutes.
• Make green sauce. Chop remaining mint and basil and 1 bunch fresh parsley leaves. In a bowl, combine with 1 garlic clove, minced, and 1 tablespoon chopped capers. Stir in 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice and enough extra-virgin olive oil to coat; season with coarse salt and ground pepper. If saving for another day, cover and refrigerate for later use.
• Make roasted tomatoes. Reduce oven heat to 350 degrees. Halve 14 plum tomatoes. On 2 large rimmed baking sheets, arrange tomatoes, cut side up, and sprinkle with 1/2 teaspoon sugar. Bake until softened and edges are crinkled, about 1 hour. If saving for another day, let cool. Cover and refrigerate for later use.
• Meanwhile, score fish skin in a few places with a paring knife and season fillets with salt and pepper. In a large nonstick skillet, heat 1 tablespoon oil over medium-high. Add fish, skin side down, and cook until browned and crisp, 6 to 8 minutes. Reduce heat to medium; flip fish and cook until opaque throughout, 2 to 4 minutes. Serve fish with green sauce, potatoes, and tomatoes.

PAN-ROASTED FISH FILLETS WITH HERB BUTTER

Steps:

• Pat fillets dry with a paper towel. Season on both sides with salt and pepper.
• Heat a heavy 10-inch nonstick or cast-iron skillet over high heat. When the pan is hot, add the oil. Place the fillets in the pan, skin side down (if applicable), laying them down away from your body. If fillets have skin, press down gently with a spatula for about 20 seconds to prevent curling.
• Lower heat to medium and let sizzle until fish is golden and caramelized around edges, about 2 to 3 minutes. Carefully flip fillets and add butter and thyme to pan. Tilt pan slightly to let the melted butter pool at one end. Use a spoon to baste the fish with the pooled butter. Continue basting until golden all over and cooked through, 45 to 90 seconds more, depending on the thickness of your fish. Serve immediately with chopped parsley (if using) and lemon wedges.

BAKED FISH FILLETS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a baking pan with vegetable oil.
• Place mackerel fillets in the baking pan; season with salt and pepper.
• Mix butter, lemon juice, and paprika together in a bowl. Pour over mackerel fillets.
• Bake in the preheated oven until mackerel flakes easily with a fork, 20 to 25 minutes.

ROASTED FISH WITH LEEKS AND OLIVE SALSA VERDE

Steps:

• Heat oven to 425 degrees. Season fish all over with salt and pepper, and set aside while you prepare the leeks.
• Cut the leeks into matchsticks: Place a leek half, flat side down, on a cutting board and cut it in half crosswise. Then slice the pieces lengthwise into thin (1/4-inch-thick) matchsticks. Repeat with remaining leeks.
• Spread leeks out on a rimmed baking sheet. Lightly drizzle them with oil and a pinch of salt and pepper, and toss to coat. Push aside the leeks to create 4 spaces in the center of the sheet pan just large enough for the fish fillets, then place the fillets in those cleared spaces. (Avoid putting the fish on top of the leeks, which won't cook as well if they're covered.)
• Drizzle fish with oil. Roast until the fish is opaque and just cooked through but not yet flaky, about 10 to 15 minutes, depending on the thickness of fish. The leeks surrounding the fish will be soft and silky, while those at the edges of the pan may turn delightfully brown and crisp in spots. If the fish is done but you think the leeks need a little more time, transfer the fish to a serving platter, tent with foil to keep warm, and continue to cook the leeks for another few minutes.
• While the fish is in the oven, make the salsa verde: Using a fine rasp grater, grate 1/2 teaspoon lemon zest into a small bowl. Halve the lemon and squeeze in 1 tablespoon juice.
• Stir in olives, cilantro, garlic, red-pepper flakes and a pinch of salt. Slowly drizzle in oil, stirring to combine. Taste and add more salt, red-pepper or another squeeze of lemon, if needed.
• Place fish on plates and surround with leeks. Top with olive salsa verde.

BAKED FISH FILLETS

Steps:

• Heat oven to 375°F. Grease bottom of rectangular pan, 11x7x1 1/2 inches.
• Cut fish fillets into 4 serving pieces if needed. Place pieces, skin sides down, in the pan, folding thin ends under if necessary for even thickness.
• Mix remaining ingredients; drizzle over fish.
• Bake uncovered 15 to 20 minutes or until fish flakes easily with fork.

ROAST FISH WITH CANNELLINI BEANS AND GREEN OLIVES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 300°F. Combine oregano, beans, olives, and 1/2 cup water in a shallow 3-qt. baking dish; season lightly with salt. Place fish on top and nestle into beans; season fish generously with salt. Scatter shallots and chile over fish and beans. Very thinly slice 1 lemon and wriggle out seeds. Arrange slices, slightly overlapping, over surface of fish. Drizzle everything with oil and roast until fish is opaque throughout and flesh in the center flakes when gently pressed, 25-35 minutes, depending on the type and thickness of the fish. Let rest, occasionally pressing beans down into the liquid so they don't dry out, 5-10 minutes.
• Cut remaining lemon into wedges and serve alongside fish and beans for squeezing over.
