Ingredients
- 2 pieces Murray cod fillet, about 200 g each, skin on
- pinch of salt and pepper
- 100 ml extra virgin olive oil
- 1 punnet ice plant, leaves picked
- 1 punnet micro sea parsley, leaves picked
- 2 red Asian shallots, very thinly sliced
- 1 lemon, halved
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 220˚C.
- Season the fish with a little salt and pepper. Heat a heavy based oven proof frying pan over medium–high heat. Add a drizzle of oil and when hot, place the fish, skin-side down in the pan and place a weight on top to ensure the skin has maximum contact with the pan. Cook for a few minutes or until the skin is golden and crisp. Turn the fish over and transfer the pan to the oven. Roast for 10-15 minutes or until cooked to your liking. The cooking time will vary according to the thickness of the fish. Remove from the oven and rest for 5 minutes.
- Meanwhile, place the picked herbs and shallots in a bowl. Add lemon juice and olive oil to taste and toss to combine. Cut the remaining lemon into wedges and serve with the fish with the sea herb salad.
