Although Grenadier is not the most attractive looking fish, the fillets are a nice light pink color and the taste is mild and slightly sweet with a flaky texture.

Serves 4

Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup fresh multi-grain breadcrumbs
  • 1/4 cup flat-leaf parsley leaves, finely chopped
  • 1/3 cup finely grated parmesan cheese
  • 1 teaspoon finely grated lemon rind
  • 1 teaspoon olive oil
  • 4 Grenadier fillets
  • olive oil cooking spray
  • Steamed green beans, to serve
  • Boiled potatoes, to serve
  • Lemon wedges, to serve

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 200°C or 180C fan-forced. Combine breadcrumbs, parsley, parmesan, lemon rind, and salt and pepper in a bowl. Stir to combine. Drizzle mixture with oil. Stir until breadcrumbs are coated in oil.
  2. Press breadcrumb mixture onto flesh-side of fish fillets to form an even topping.
  3. Place fish, skin-side down, onto a baking tray. Spray with oil. Bake for 15 minutes or until crumbs are light golden and fish is just cooked through. Serve with steamed beans, potatoes and lemon wedges.
