Green Roasted Fish Fillets image

This is a recipe from one of my two new cookbooks, both by Jerry Traunfeld; The HerbFarm Cookbook by Jerry Traunfeld. It's the first recipe I've tried from it and it was delicious! What a difference fresh grown herbs make, really kicks a dish up a notch! I did add one jalepeno to the marinade in the food processor, hangs head in shame, seed and all, but you guys know we like it hot! I used halibut fillets, as that was what I had on hand. Preparation time does NOT include the time it takes to marinate, and is a rough estimate based on how long it took me, making it the first time, to prepare the dish.

Time 35m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

1/2 cup gently packed fresh cilantro leaves
1/2 cup gently packed fresh flat leaf parsley
1/2 cup gently packed fresh spearmint
1 tablespoon freshly ground dried coriander seed, untoasted. You can substitute 1 teaspoon fresh green coriander seed, finely chopped
2 green onions, white and green parts, coarsely chopped
2 garlic cloves, peeled
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon fresh ground pepper
1/2 fresh lime, zest of (using a zester)
1/4 cup freshly squeezed lime juice
6 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
1 1/2-2 lbs cod fish fillets (a medium-firm white-fleshed fish fillet) or 1 1/2-2 lbs rockfish fillets (a medium-firm white-fleshed fish fillet)

Steps:

  • HERB PASTE.
  • Process all the ingredients for the paste in a food processor to a fairly smooth puree. Transfer it to a glass or stainless-steel mixing bowl.
  • MARINATING THE FISH.
  • Remove any bones that may remain in the fillet, cut off any gray fat that was next to the skin, and cut the fish into 4 equal pieces. Toss them with the herb paste until all surfaces are evenly coated. Cover the bowl loosely with plastic wrap and let the fish set at room temperature for 15-20 minutes (I did 30 minutes).
  • BAKING.
  • Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Arrange the pieces of fish in a shallow baking dish large enough too hold them in a single layer without touching. Spoon any of the herb paste left in the bowl over the fish so that they are covered with an even coating. Bake until, when you peek inside a piece, the last bit of translucence is fading from the interior flesh, roughly 10 minutes per inch of fish thickness. Serve right away!

This recipe is a waste of time and money. The fish was腥臭and the green sauce was bland. I would not recommend this recipe to anyone.

Avoid this recipe at all costs! The fish was undercooked and the green sauce was too salty. I had to throw the whole thing away.

This was the worst fish recipe I have ever tried. The fish was dry and tough, and the green sauce was flavorless. I would not recommend this recipe to anyone.

This recipe was a disaster! The fish was overcooked and the green sauce was inedible. I do not recommend this recipe.

I wasn't a fan of this recipe. The fish was bland and the green sauce was too acidic. I won't be making this again.

This was a good recipe, but I think it could be improved with a few changes. I would add more garlic and lemon to the green sauce, and I would cook the fish for a shorter amount of time.

The fish was a bit dry, but the green sauce was delicious. I think I would try a different cooking method next time.

This recipe was easy to follow and the fish turned out great! The green sauce was a bit too tangy for my taste, but overall it was a good dish.

I made this recipe for my family, and they loved it! The fish was moist and flavorful, and the green sauce was a perfect complement. I will definitely be making this again.

I love this recipe! It's so easy to make, and the fish always turns out perfectly cooked. The green sauce is also delicious, and it's a great way to add some extra flavor to the fish.

This recipe was a hit! The fish was flaky and moist, and the green sauce was flavorful and tangy. I served it over rice, and it was the perfect meal for a weeknight dinner.
