Description

Tender, flaky white fish roasted with a bold mustard glaze and finished with fresh herbs. This quick and flavorful oven baked dish is perfect for an easy weeknight dinner.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 white fish fillets, about 6 ounces each
  • 3 tablespoons Dijon mustard
  • 1 tablespoon whole grain mustard
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, finely chopped

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a small bowl, mix Dijon mustard, whole grain mustard, olive oil, minced garlic, lemon juice, salt, and black pepper until smooth.
  3. Place the fish fillets on the prepared baking sheet and pat them dry with a paper towel.
  4. Spoon or brush the mustard mixture evenly over the top of each fillet.
  5. Roast for 10 to 12 minutes, or until the fish flakes easily with a fork and appears opaque.
  6. Remove from the oven and sprinkle with freshly chopped parsley.
  7. Serve immediately while warm.

Notes

  • Pat the fish dry before adding the mustard mixture for better adhesion and browning.
  • Do not overcook, as fish can dry out quickly.
  • Use fillets of similar thickness for even roasting.
  • Add a pinch of smoked paprika to the mustard mixture for extra depth if desired.
