Oven-Baked Fish Fillets with Lemon and Paprika
Ingredients
  • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil, or to taste
  • 2 pounds mackerel fillets
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/8 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 1/4 cup butter, melted
  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice
  • 1/8 teaspoon ground paprika
Instructions
1
Collect and prepare all necessary components.
2
Preheat your oven to the optimal temperature of 350 degrees Fahrenheit (175 degrees Celsius).
3
Coat a baking dish with a suitable amount of vegetable oil to prevent sticking.
4
Arrange the mackerel fillets in the prepared baking dish; sprinkle with a pinch of salt and pepper to enhance flavor.
5
Combine softened butter, freshly squeezed lemon juice, and paprika in a bowl.
6
Pour the mixture over the mackerel fillets to create a savory and aromatic crust.
7
Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and cook until the fish flakes apart with minimal resistance when pierced with a fork, approximately 20 to 25 minutes.
