Baked Swordfish Recipes - These Are The Fundamentals You Should Know

Grilling is a good way of cooking small whole fish or fillets. If you are using whole fish, slash the skin on both sides a few times and brush with melted butter or olive oil. Baste the fish during cooking and turn it halfway through. You might like to wrap the fish in foil with olive oil, herbs, and lemon juice before placing it on the grill.

Fish generally take 10 minutes to cook per inch of thickness. Just to be sure not to overcook. Try to start checking it after about 7 or 8 minutes. Steaming is the one method where this rule doesn't apply, if you steam your fish, check for doneness starting at about 7 minutes.

There are so many benefits to eating fish on a weekly basis. Have a look a the link below to see some of my favorite recipes and how to prepare healthy meals for your family.

Fish can be prepared using almost any type of cooking method. From baking, steaming, frying, grilling, broiling, or slow cooking. When cooking fish, it is important not to overcook, which will result in dry and somewhat tasteless meat. A general rule is to cook a fish 10 minutes for each inch of thickness. (not be used for deep frying or microwaving fish) The fish should be cooked until it has reached an internal temperature of at least 145ºF.

Here is another one of my favorite fish recipes.

Ingredients:

1 1/4 pounds fresh or frozen halibut
2 teaspoons vegetable oil
3/4 cup bread crumbs
2 tablespoons of grated parmesan cheese
1 tablespoon of fresh tarragon, snipped or 1/2 teaspoon dried crushed tarragon
1/2 teaspooon paprika
A dash of pepper

Preheat oven to 450ºF.

Cut thawed fish into four portions, then pat dry and brush with cooking oil.

Stir together bread crumbs, parmesan cheese, tarragon, paprika and pepper. Dip fish into crumb mixture to coat both sides. Sprinkle any leftover crumb mixture on top.

Bake fish, uncovered for 8 to 12 minutes in a hot oven, until fish flakes easily with a fork. Do not turn over while baking.

I like to serve with fresh lemon wedges.

Remember these easy tips with buying and cooking fish:

* If you don't oil your grill, the fish will stick, and break apart when you try to remove it.

* Fish that is less than 1/2 inch thick do not require turning when cooking.
* You can place fish directly on the grill, but if you do this, use a firm fleshed fish, like grouper, tuna, swordfish, or salmon.

* Make sure that the fish is well coated in batter.
