  • Once thawed, pat the filets dry and place them in the prepared baking dish.
  • In a small bowl, combine the seasonings then use a pastry brush to apply the olive oil to all sides of the fish.
    ¼ teaspoon seafood seasoning, ¼ teaspoon salt, ½ teaspoon garlic powder, ½ teaspoon dried oregano, ¼ teaspoon smoked paprika, 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • Sprinkle half the seasonings on one side of the fish. Flip the fish over and sprinkle the filets with the remaining seasoning.

Notes

  • The calories listed are an approximation based on the ingredients in the recipe card and a serving size of 6 ounces. Actual calories will vary.
  • We used frozen (thawed) fish. Fresh fish also works.
  • Old Bay Seasoning is salty. It's possible that using Old Bay plus the salt could be too strong for some. Consider using less, and adding additional salt after the fish cooks if desired.
