Deliciously cooked fish is always there and will remain the central dish of any table set both for a holiday and for a quiet family dinner. I want to share my experience of "communication" with the most budgetary fish - pollock.

And it doesn't have to be dry in taste. You just need to be able to cook this sea fish, using the old time-tested recipes of someone who was able to debunk such a myth. I offer a couple of recipes with a photo of baked pollock in the oven, when each piece literally melts in your mouth. According to these recipes, you can bake not only white sea fish, but also red fish.

How to choose the right ingredients

• For baking in the oven, you can buy both frozen pollock carcasses and sea fish fillets.
• Lemon is optional. But lemon juice noticeably dulls the specific fishy aroma if it is soaked in pieces of fish.
• Baked pollock will turn out juicy if it is smeared with a thin layer of sour cream or mayonnaise before being wrapped in foil.
• Vegetable oil for baking is used in a minimal amount, and it is desirable that it be odorless.

Pollock	4 carcasses

Step by step cooking sea fish baked in foil

I share a very simple recipe for cooking pollock in foil, baked in the oven. The fish is very tasty and tender. Even spinal bones do not represent any taste or aesthetic discomfort when serving a dish, even on a festive table.

Preparing fish for baking

Gut and wash four medium pollock carcasses, and cut off the tail and all fins.

Cut each fish into two equal-sized pieces and put in a deep cup.

Dissolve one lemon into thin slices.

Mix lemon wedges with fish pieces.

Lightly pepper the contents of the cup and add a pinch of salt. Mix all ingredients in a bowl and refrigerate for an hour.

We bake pollock

For 60-70 min. you need to mix the fish pieces 2-3 more times so that they marinate better. After the time has elapsed, turn on the oven so that it warms up, and you can proceed to the finishing stage:

Chop two medium onions into small cubes.

Finely chop a bunch of fresh parsley and mix with onion cubes.

Line a baking sheet with two or three pieces of foil so that its edges protrude - they will need to wrap the fish.

Lubricate the inside of the spread foil with 1-1½ tbsp. l. vegetable oil.

Spread half of the onion and parsley mixture under the pickled pieces of pollock.

Lay pollock pieces tightly on a vegetable pillow, stuffing with lemon slices and a mixture of onion and parsley. Arrange the lemon wedges between the fish pieces. Did you know? The taste of any baked fish is better combined with the taste of parsley, not dill.

Apply a thin layer of mayonnaise or sour cream (no more than 150 ml) on pollock pieces.

Cover the surface with the rest of the vegetable mixture.

Wrap the edges of the foil and seal the fish so that neither steam nor liquid can escape. Bake in a well-heated oven for half an hour at a temperature of 200-230 ° C.

After half an hour, remove the baking sheet from the oven, remove the top layer of foil, and put in the oven for another 10-15 minutes. until golden brown.

The dish is ready.
