Plaice Fillets baked with Orange and Thyme


Fish is so good for you, being a high protein food, and it’s very quick to cook too. This easy recipe is based on plaice, stuffed with orange and thyme-flavoured breadcrumbs, cooked in white wine. Then to carry on the theme, we give you suggestions to use the same ingredients in two different ways. Ingenious!


Ingredients

Low fat cooking spray

50 g fresh white breadcrumbs

2 sprigs of thyme

1 orange

Salt and freshly ground black pepper

2 large plaice fillets (or use lemon sole)

150 ml dry white wine


Take 1 - Plaice Fillets baked with Orange and ThymePreheat oven to 190°C, Fan Oven 170°C, Gas Mark 5. Mist a shallow baking dish with low fat cooking spray.
Put the breadcrumbs into a bowl. Strip the leaves from the thyme sprigs and add them to the breadcrumbs with the finely grated zest and half the juice from the orange. Season.


Lay the fish fillets on a work surface, skin side up. Spoon the stuffing on them at the wide end, then roll them up and arrange in the baking dish, tucking the ends underneath. Place a slice of orange onto each one. Pour over the wine, and squeeze over any remaining orange juice.


Cover with foil or a lid and bake for 25 minutes. Serve with plenty of zero POINTS value vegetables.
