I had this delicious meal for dinner this week, it was quite yummy and feeling.
The good thing is, it can be made within 10-15 minutes depending on how you like your fish done.
Ingredients
Barramundi Fish
Spinach
Baby Peas (frozen).
Onion (2)
Garlic & Coriander salad dressing.
How To?
Wash your spinach and place in a strainer for water to drain.
Marinate the fish with your favourite spices, herbs and salt.
Smear your fry pan with 3 teaspoons of Olive oil and pre-heat for few minutes.
Dice your onions.
After 2 minutes of pre-heating the fry pan, pour the diced onions into the pan and stir.
Leave onions to fry for 2 minutes.
Place your fish on the onions, which serves as a base to prevent the fish from sticking to the pan or getting burnt.
Make sure fish is continuously turned over, every 3 minutes, for equal exposure to heat.
Steam the frozen baby peas for 3 minutes.
Once fish is done, serve on a plate with the spinach and baby peas, sit and enjoy.
