Baked Fish with Asparagus

Baked Red Garoupa with Asparagus

The fish can also be substituted with salmon or barramundi. For the asparagus, I used Mexican asparagus - they are thicker and have more bite, but normal asparagus will do as well.

The cooking time for the fish and asparagus are quite similar, which makes this dish even more convenient.

Ingredients:

2 fillets of red garoupa

300g of asparagus, cut into approximately 3-4cm pieces

Salt

Pepper

Olive oil

Lemon (optional)

Instructions:

1) Season the fish with salt and pepper, then lay them on a baking tray with the asparagus. Try not to overlap any of them.

2) Add a little bit of lemon juice on the fish - the amount is up to your preference.

3) Drizzle a bit of olive oil over the fish and asparagus.

4) Preheat the oven to 200 degrees Celcius, then grill it for 12 minutes.
