Oregano Snapper with Lemon

Sprinkle, bake, and serve—any easier and it wouldn’t be called cooking!

Recipe information

  • Yield

    Serves 4; 3 ounces fish per serving

Ingredients

Cooking spray
4 red snapper or other mild white fish fillets (about 4 ounces each), rinsed and patted dry
1 teaspoon dried oregano, crumbled
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
Paprika to taste
1 medium lemon, cut into 4 wedges

Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Preheat the oven to 350°F. Line a baking pan with aluminum foil. Lightly spray with cooking spray.

    Step 2

    Place the fish in a single layer in the baking pan.

    Step 3

    In a small bowl, stir together the remaining ingredients except the lemon. Sprinkle over the fish. Using your fingertips, gently press the mixture so it adheres to the fish. Lightly spray with cooking spray.

    Step 4

    Bake for 10 to 12 minutes, or until the fish flakes easily when tested with a fork. Serve with the lemon wedges to squeeze over the fish.
