Fish Shake and Bake. Can it be done?

 

It not only IS possible, it's excellent tasting! The Wizard does it every time. I experiment with the different types of coatings available from the store.

"Shake and Bake" is a popular method for cooking fish that involves coating it in a seasoned mixture and then baking it in the oven. Here's a simple recipe for shaking and baking fresh fish:

Ingredients:

• Fresh fish fillets (such as cod, halibut, or tilapia)
• Shake and bake mix (available at most grocery stores)
• Olive oil or cooking spray

Instructions:

1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).

2. Rinse the fish fillets under cold water and pat them dry with paper towels.

3. Pour the shake and bake mix into a shallow dish or plastic bag.

4. Drizzle a little bit of olive oil over the fish fillets or spray them lightly with cooking spray.

5. Place the fish fillets into the dish or bag with the shake and bake mix and shake them gently until they are coated evenly.

6. Arrange the coated fish fillets on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or aluminum foil.

7. Bake the fish in the preheated oven for about 15-20 minutes, depending on the thickness of the fillets. You can check if they're done by inserting a fork into the thickest part of the fillet - if it flakes easily, it's cooked through.

8. Remove the fish from the oven and let it cool for a minute or two before serving.

This recipe is easy and quick to make, and it produces delicious, crispy fish that's perfect for a quick weeknight meal. You don't even have to use the coating specifically for fish. The Wizard prefers "Southern Fried Chicken" coating...
