Ingredients

  • 14 oz (.4 kg) wild haddock fillets (2 fillets)
  • 1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil/spray
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • pinch of pepper
  • 3 tbsp unsalted butter, melted
  • 2 tbsp lemon juice
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 400°F.
  • Rinse the fish with cold water, and pat dry with paper towel.
  • Line a baking sheet with foil, coat with olive oil, or spray, then arrange the haddock fillets and season with salt and pepper.
  • In a small bowl, whisk together melted butter, lemon juice, garlic, parsley and tarragon. Pour over the haddock fillets.
