2. Australian Barramundi Recipe with Garlic Lemon Butter Sauce

Equipment

  • Large Skillet
  • Baking sheet
  • Mixing bowl
  • whisk

Ingredients

  • 8 Barramundi fillets, skin on
  • 1 cup Salt and pepper to taste
  • 5 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/2 cup chicken broth
  • 1/2 cup dry white wine
  • 1/4 cup lemon juice
  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
  • Season the Barramundi fillets with salt and pepper on both sides.
  • Dredge each fillet in flour, shaking off any excess.
  • In a large skillet over medium heat, melt the butter. Add the garlic and cook for 1 minute until fragrant.
  • Add the chicken broth, white wine, and lemon juice. Bring the mixture to a simmer and cook for 3-4 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  • Place the Barramundi fillets in the skillet, skin side down. Cook for 2-3 minutes until the skin is crispy.
  • Transfer the skillet to the oven and bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the fish is cooked through.
  • Remove from the oven and sprinkle with chopped parsley.
  • Serve hot with the garlic lemon butter sauce spooned over the fish.

Notes

Tips and Tricks

Make sure to pat the fish dry with a paper towel before seasoning it. This will ensure the fish browns nicely and the skin becomes crispy.
To make the garlic lemon butter sauce ahead of time, prepare the sauce and store it in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat the sauce in a saucepan before serving.
To make the recipe even simpler, the Barramundi fillets can be baked in the oven without searing them in the skillet first.
