Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

For the Fish
  • 4 swai fish fillets 4 ounces each
  • Cooking spray for greasing
For the Sauce
  • 2 tablespoons margarine or unsalted butter
  • 1/4 cup dry white wine
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 1 tablespoon fresh cilantro chopped (optional)
  • 1 teaspoon minced garlic
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon ground black pepper
For Seasoning
  • 1 teaspoon paprika for garnish

Method
 

Preheat the Oven
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Lightly grease a shallow baking pan with cooking spray to ensure the fish doesn’t stick.
2. Arrange the Fish
  1. Place the swai fillets in the prepared pan, ensuring they are evenly spaced for uniform cooking.
3. Prepare the Sauce
  1. In a small saucepan, melt margarine over medium heat.
  2. Stir in the white wine, lemon juice, cilantro (if using), minced garlic, salt, and black pepper.
  3. Simmer for 2-3 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld.
4. Season the Fish
  1. Spoon the prepared sauce evenly over the swai fillets.
  2. Sprinkle paprika on each fillet to enhance flavor and presentation.
5. Bake the Fish
  1. Bake the fish in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the fillets flake easily with a fork and are opaque throughout.
6. Serve and Enjoy
  1. Serve the seasoned swai fillets hot, garnished with additional cilantro if desired. Pair with rice, steamed vegetables, or a fresh salad for a complete meal.

Notes

  • Use Fresh Ingredients: Fresh garlic, lemon juice, and cilantro elevate the dish’s flavor.
  • Thaw Frozen Fish: If using frozen swai, ensure it’s fully thawed and patted dry before cooking.
  • Customize the Heat: Add red pepper flakes or cayenne pepper for a spicier twist.
