Baked Dory Fish in Butter & Lemon Sauce

That was what I made for dinner tonight.
And it was such a success that it was half gone before I could even take a picture of it.
.
But then again, better to have it eaten than not at all.
.
Here's the recipe.
.
Ingredients
- 2 dory fillets
- 2 large onions thinly sliced (for onions lovers. If you're not one, then 1 onion would be sufficient)
- 1/2 lemon
- 2 big tablespoons of butter
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1 clove garlic diced
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 tablespoon of dried basil
- a pinch of white pepper
.
Method
.
1. Heat the oven to 180'C
2. Grease the base of baking dish with some butter
3. Cover the base with the onion slices and place fish fillet on top
4. Melt the remaining butter in a saucepan with the lemon juice, Worcestershire sauce, garlic, salt and basil. Do NOT bring to boil
5. Pour the sauce mixture over the fish and sprinkle some white pepper on it
6. Place in oven and cook for about 15 - 20 minutes
7. Scoop out fish on another plate and pour remains of sauce over it
.
Next time, instead of putting it in the oven to bake, I'm gonna try grilling it. And a tip for all butter lovers, putting in more than 2 spoonfuls of butter is a MUST try.
.
Hope you enjoy the recipe as much as I did!
