________________________________________________

INGREDIENTS NEEDED

  • 4-6 fish fillet ( I used hammer, but it can be substituted for any other fish, ex. Salom)
  • ¼ cup  of lemon juice
  • 2 tbsp of finely chopped cilantro
  • 1 tsp of salt
  • 1 tsp of black pepper
  • 1 red chili pepper sliced( optional)
  • 2 tbsp of oil for frying
  • 1 tbsp of olive oil for marinate
  • 1 table spoon of butter
  • 4 cloves of chopped garlic
  • 1 small onion finely chopped
  • 1 lemon
  • ½ cup of water

PREPARATION:

  • In a bowl marinate the fish with the juice of 1 lemon, red chili pepper, ½ tsp of salt, ½ tsp pepper and 1 tbsp of olive oil and set aside for at least 30 minutes.
  • In a large  pan heat 2 tbsp of oil and cook fillet for 3 minutes on each side or until light golden  brown, remove into a serving dish.
  • In the same pot add garlic, green onion, butter and ¼ lemon juice and cook for 5 minutes on heat, remove from heat and add chopped cilantro.  Pour sauce over the fish fillet and serve.
  • HINT: for spicy taste you can add the same chili from marinate into the sauce, you can also add more lemon juice for an extra citrus flavor.

Hi. I am serving this fish recipe tonight at our Christmas dinner, but can you tell me what kind of wine we can drink with it? Is a Chenin Blanc any good with this recipe? I believe I am a reasonable cook, but I have absolutely no idea about which wine should accompany fish. Thnx Gwen

Hi Gwen, my best bit is to ask the shop where you buy your wine for what goes best with fish. Hope it works out. Happy New Year!
