Oven-baked catfish with potatoes and peas – a simple and tasty delicacy Preparation time: 20 minutes Baking time: 40 minutes Total time: 1 hour Servings: 4 Today, I propose a delicious recipe for oven-baked catfish, accompanied by potatoes and peas, which perfectly combines textures and flavors. This recipe is ideal for a family dinner, being quick and easy to prepare, even for those who are just starting out in the culinary arts. Ingredients: - 4 catfish fillets (approximately 800 g) - 600 g potatoes - 300 g peas (fresh or frozen) - 2 medium onions - 3 garlic cloves - 4 tablespoons olive oil - 1 lemon (juice and zest) - Salt and pepper to taste - 1 teaspoon dried or fresh thyme - 1 bunch of fresh parsley for garnish (optional) Preparation: 1. Start by preheating the oven to 200 degrees Celsius. This step is essential for achieving even baking of the catfish and vegetables. 2. Peel the potatoes and cut them into cubes of about 2-3 cm. This size will ensure even baking and a pleasant texture. If you prefer, you can use new potatoes, which do not require peeling but should be washed well. 3. Place the potatoes in a baking dish, add 2 tablespoons of olive oil, salt, pepper, and half of the lemon juice. Mix well to ensure that each cube is evenly coated. Bake the potatoes in the oven for 20 minutes. 4. Meanwhile, finely chop the onions and garlic. In a pan, add 2 tablespoons of olive oil and sauté the onion over medium heat until it becomes translucent. Add the garlic and thyme, stirring for a few minutes until the flavors combine. 5. After the potatoes have been in the oven for 20 minutes, remove the dish and add the peas, stirring gently. Then, place the catfish fillets on top of the vegetables. Drizzle with the remaining lemon juice and sprinkle with lemon zest for an extra touch of freshness. 6. Continue baking for another 20 minutes, until the catfish is well cooked and the vegetables are tender. The catfish is ready when it flakes easily with a fork. 7. Finally, garnish with chopped fresh parsley. Serving this dish is a moment of joy – plate the servings and enjoy alongside a glass of white wine or fresh lemonade. Helpful tips: - If you can’t find catfish, you can substitute with another white fish, such as perch or tilapia, which have a similar texture. - For a more intense flavor, you can add spices like smoked paprika or sweet paprika. - This recipe is very versatile; you can also add other vegetables, such as carrots or zucchini, for an extra splash of color and nutrients. This oven-baked catfish recipe with potatoes and peas is not only simple but also extremely satisfying, perfect for days when you want a healthy and tasty meal without too much effort. Enjoy your meal!

Preparation

The cleaned fish is washed, scored, and brushed with half of the sauce made from oil, soy sauce, ginger, lemon juice, pepper, and of course paprika [what can I do, I am from Transylvania, I couldn't resist not adding it]. The fish is placed in a baking tray on parchment paper, accompanied on the sides by potatoes [which have been previously cleaned, cut, and washed], green peas, and carrots [cleaned, washed, and sliced into rounds]. Salt is sprinkled, and it is drizzled with oil; the catfish is garnished with garlic, lemon, and sliced tomato: the tray is covered with aluminum foil and baked for 30 minutes. The foil is removed, the catfish is drizzled with the remaining sauce, and it is left to brown for another 15 minutes. Enjoy your meal!!!
