EASY CHEESE BAKED FISH



Easy Cheese Baked Fish image

I quite often bake my fish this way. Easy & simple, nothing fancy, but we like the result. I actually do not even measure the ingredients anymore and just throw it together, but these are the original measurements. Sometimes I add a little lemon juice or lemon pepper seasoning and top it all off with a sprinkling of parsley for a little colour.

Tips:

  • Choose the right fish: Select a firm-fleshed fish that will hold up well to baking, such as salmon, cod, or tilapia.
  • Season the fish simply: A simple seasoning of salt, pepper, and lemon is all you need to bring out the natural flavor of the fish.
  • Don't overcrowd the baking dish: Make sure there is enough space between the fish fillets or steaks so that they can cook evenly.
  • Bake the fish at a high temperature: This will help to create a crispy crust and juicy interior.
  • Don't overcook the fish: The fish is done cooking when it is opaque and flakes easily with a fork.
  • Serve the fish immediately: Baked fish is best served hot out of the oven.
