  • Of Fresh Mint

How to Make Apricot And Mint Fish

  1. Preheat oven to 180°C (350°F).
  2. Place white fish fillets (about 4 x 150g fillets) in a single layer in a baking dish.
  3. In a medium bowl, whisk together the apricot jam (1/2 cup), fresh mint leaves (1/4 cup, chopped), olive oil (2 tablespoons), lemon juice (1 tablespoon), Dijon mustard (1 teaspoon), salt (1/2 teaspoon), and black pepper (1/4 teaspoon).
  4. Pour the apricot and mint glaze evenly over the fish fillets.
  5. Cover the baking dish with foil and marinate for at least 30 minutes (or up to 1 hour in the refrigerator).
  6. Bake the uncovered fish in the preheated oven for 35-45 minutes, or until the fish is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Elevate your dish with simple flavor boosters! A final flourish of freshly chopped herbs can add incredible brightness, while a squeeze of lemon or lime juice right before serving can awaken all the flavors. Don't underestimate a sprinkle of quality finishing salt or a drizzle of good olive oil to make your creation shine.
