In a baking tray lined with parchment paper, place the thawed, dried fillet. Lightly grease the parchment paper, before placing the fillet
Now in a bowl, let’s make the fillet seasoning. Add butter, fresh basil, herb mix, sliced garlic, 1 tbsp olive oil and using a small whisk or a fork, mix it thoroughly
Using a spatula, cover the fillet with the seasoning on both sides. Now add lemon juice and 1 tbsp olive oil and chilli flakes (optional) on the top
Toss it in the preheated oven for 18-20 mins and done!!!
Enjoy it with a side of salads, pastas, breads or just by itself. A super satisfying, delicious, and under 30 min meal
