Day 6 - Ocean Perch Recipe

Well, I was going to do an activity with the whole family today but both of the kids are sick. So I tried out another recipe instead.

Ocean Perch (My own recipe):

7 small ocean perch fillets
2 lemons
1/4 t salt
1/4 t black pepper
1/2 t parsley
1/2 t cayenne pepper
1/2 t garlic powder

Heat oven to 425 degrees. Put frozen fish fillets into a 9x13 baking dish so that they don't touch. Squeeze the juice of one lemon directly onto the fish. Cut the other lemon into slices and place them around the pan, not covering any fish fillet completely. Mix all the spices together and then sprinkle over entire dish using fingers. Bake for 13 minutes or until fish flakes with a fork.

What we thought:

For those of you who don't like spice I would reduce it to 1/8 to 1/4 t or eliminate it altogether. It had a little bit of a kick to it but we like that in this house. Also, we like lemon so the fish was very lemony in flavor. If you aren't that big of a fan of lemon, just use one and follow the cut it into slices directions. We all liked it here so it is definitely going into the "use again" file.

If you try this out please let me know what you thought!
