To prepare a delicious and healthy meal, we will start by choosing a fresh fish, such as salmon or sea bass. This will be the base of our dish, which we will season skillfully. In a bowl, we mix salt, pepper, a teaspoon of sweet paprika, a dash of garlic powder, and a few sprigs of dried thyme. These spices will add a savory flavor to our fish. After mixing the spices well, we rub the fish with this mixture on all sides, ensuring that each piece is evenly coated.
Once the fish is prepared, we turn our attention to the tray in which we will bake it. We pour a little olive oil into the tray, enough to cover the bottom, then carefully place the fish. The oven should be preheated to 180 degrees Celsius. We place the tray in the oven and let the fish cook for 15 minutes, during which the flavors will intensify.
In the meantime, we will take care of the potato side dish. Choose medium-sized potatoes, which are washed well under a stream of cold water to remove impurities. They are placed in a pot with cold water and brought to a boil. Let the potatoes boil in their skins for about 20-25 minutes, or until they become tender. Check them with a fork: if it goes in easily, they are ready. After boiling, drain them and let them cool slightly. Then, peel them and cut them into slices about 1 cm thick.
Now, let’s take care of the potato mixture. In a large bowl, add the slices of boiled potatoes, a thinly sliced red onion, and a few fresh chopped dill leaves. Gently mix the ingredients, being careful not to crush the potatoes. You can add a drizzle of olive oil and the juice of a lemon to enhance the flavor and add a touch of acidity.
After 15 minutes, take the fish out of the oven. It should be nicely browned, with a crispy crust. Place the fish portions on plates, alongside the potato mixture, and garnish with slices of fresh lemon. This dish not only looks delicious, but its taste will delight any gourmet. Enjoy!
