Baked Whiting with Parmesan

Baked Whiting with Parmesan

adapted from Food & Wine September 2007

Many people would say that you should not pair seafood and cheese. Others would disagree. I disagree.

Whiting is a mild fish which gets a nuttiness from the cheese.

Makes 2 servings                                                            1 WW pp / serving

2 6 oz. whiting fillets
Cooking spray

Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
1 1/2 tsp. fresh parsley, chopped
1/2 tsp. fresh thyme, chopped
2 1/2 Tbsp. parmesan cheese

2 tsp. caviar (optional)

1. Preheat the oven to 350°. 
2. Place the fillets on a baking sheet coated with cooking spray.
3. Season the fish with pepper and scatter the parsley and thyme on top. 
4. Bake for about 10 minutes, or until the fish is just cooked through.
5. Preheat the broiler. 
6. Sprinkle the fish fillets with the parmesan. 
7. Broil for about 2 minutes, or until the cheese is golden brown.
