Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Marinade

    In a medium bowl, combine the minced garlic, lemon juice, olive oil, salt, black pepper, and paprika. Mix well to form a marinade.

  2. 2

    Marinate the Fish

    Place the basa fish fillets in a shallow dish and pour the marinade over the fish. Ensure the fillets are evenly coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.

  3. 3

    Preheat the Oven

    Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F).

  4. 4

    Bake the Fish

    Line a baking tray with parchment paper. Place the marinated basa fillets on the tray and bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes or until the fish flakes easily with a fork.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Once cooked, remove the fish from the oven and let it rest for a few minutes. Serve hot with your choice of sides, such as steamed vegetables or rice.
