Tips:

  • Mise en place: Before you start cooking, make sure you have all your ingredients prepped and measured. This will make the cooking process go much smoother.
  • Choose fresh, high-quality ingredients: The quality of your ingredients will greatly impact the flavor of your dish. So, whenever possible, use fresh, seasonal ingredients.
  • Season your fish generously: Don't be afraid to season your fish with salt and pepper. This will help to enhance the natural flavor of the fish.
  • Cook your fish just until it is cooked through: Overcooked fish is dry and tough. So, be careful not to overcook your fish. The best way to tell if your fish is cooked through is to insert a fork into the thickest part of the fish. If the fish flakes easily, it is cooked through.
  • Serve your fish immediately: Fish is best served immediately after it is cooked. This is when it is at its most flavorful and moist.
