These zesty, garlicky fish fillets are the sensible option when you’re craving fish ‘n’ chips. Plus, they taste delicious!
Ingredients
- 100g instant polenta
- Grated zest of 2 lemons, plus lemon wedges to serve
- 2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh herbs (such as chives and parsley)
- 2 garlic cloves, crushed
- 2 eggs, beaten
- 4 x 180g skinless barramundi fillets (or use other firm white fish)
- 1/3 cup (80ml) olive oil
- 300g grape tomatoes
- 300g flat beans, sliced on an angle
- Lemon wedges, to serve
Method
- Step 1Combine polenta, zest, herbs and half the garlic in a shallow dish, then season. Put eggs in another dish. Dip fish in egg, then polenta, pressing well onto the fish.
- Step 2Heat 1/4 cup (60ml) oil in a large frypan over high heat. When hot, reduce heat to medium and cook fish for 3-4 minutes on each side until golden and cooked through.
- Step 3Meanwhile, heat the remaining oil in another large frypan over medium-high heat. Cook the remaining garlic for 30 seconds. Add the tomatoes and cook for 3-4 minutes, then add beans and cook for 2-3 minutes more, until tomatoes have softened and beans are cooked but still crunchy. Season and serve immediately with fish and lemon wedges.
