Marinara Haddock

Growing up, my parents either cooked or took us out to dinner for fish nearly every Friday night. I did not like fish. I loved shellfish (shrimp, lobster, crab), but regular fish was always so… fishy. Still, my parents insisted. I would eat as little of the fish as possible, choosing to fill up on vegetables and rice or bread.

Sometime in high school, I started enjoying salmon and, since meeting Brent, I’ve sampled different kinds of fish at restaurants and we have created quite a few fish recipes. My palate has certainly grown and I actually enjoy some preparations of fish now! Some of my favorites are our basil salmon burgers, cod fritters, and grilled swordfish.

This particular recipe is super easy and ready in just about 30 minutes. It’s perfect for a quick and no-hassel dinner after a long day at the office. Pair it with some sautéed spinach, steamed broccoli, or other vegetables!

Ingredients
2 Tbsp extra virgin olive oil
1 1/2 lb wild caught haddock
1 tsp sea salt
1/2 tsp pepper
1 tsp garlic powder
1 C marinara sauce
1 tsp fresh thyme leaves

Method

Preheat the oven to 350°F. Coat a large, shallow baking dish with the olive oil.

Place the haddock in the dish and sprinkle with salt, pepper, and garlic.

Spoon on the marinara sauce and smooth it out to mostly coat the fish.

Then sprinkle the thyme leaves over the sauce.

Bake for 20-25 minutes, until fish flakes easily with a fork.
