Broiled Perch
Small whole perch broiled with oil and seasoning, then finished with melted butter, lemon pieces and parsley greens.
Method
Steps
Step 1
Have six small whole perch cleaned, gutted and neatly trimmed; wipe them dry. On a plate mix the tablespoon of canola oil, teaspoon of salt and half teaspoon of white pepper. Turn all six fish in this mixture to coat them evenly.
Step 2
Preheat an overhead broiler. Arrange the fish on a broiling rack with room for them to cook evenly. Broil for about five minutes on each side, turning carefully and adjusting the rack position to prevent scorching. Continue as needed until the thickest flesh of each fish reaches 145°F (63°C), checking away from the bone with a clean food thermometer.
Step 3
Arrange the cooked fish on a hot serving dish. Spread the tablespoon of melted butter over them, decorate with the six fresh cut lemon pieces and a little parsley greens, and serve promptly.
