Ingredients
- 10.6 oz red mullets (fillets already cleaned)
- 1 lemon (untreated)
- 2 sprigs thyme (or oregano)
- 2 tbsps extra virgin olive oil
- to taste salt
- to taste pepper
Tools
- Parchment paper
- Aluminum foil
For this fish main dish
So from the roll of parchment paper, I cut two rectangles large enough to contain the mullet fillets already cleaned of their insides.
I place the mullet fillets at the center of each sheet with the skin side down.
I season everything by adding a thin slice of lemon, some thyme or oregano leaves, a drizzle of oil, salt, and pepper in each parchment.
I fold the parchment paper trying to seal the edges well to prevent steam from escaping during the cooking of the mullets.
Honestly, I wrap everything a second time with aluminum foil, but I recommend it shouldn’t touch the food!!
I just have to bake the parcels in a preheated oven at 356°F static for about 10-12 minutes.
I place the parcel with the mullets directly on the plate for each guest for a scenic and fragrant effect!
As we open the parcel, a penetrating aroma of fish, lemon, and thyme will pleasantly fill the air… enjoy your meal and happy cooking!
