Pollock is a fish of the cod family. In Soviet times, it was undeservedly attributed to fodder fish, using as animal feed and even fertilizer. Today pollock is quite popular in many countries, and especially in China, where a lot of all kinds of dishes are made from it. In Israel, by the way, all the codfish are called the "goldfish", and in Russia, judging by the price, it is just as well to recognize the same. Pollock in the oven is a way to use all the good that is in it and level its relative disadvantages - dryness and lack of fat.

Sliced ​​pollock in the oven

Baked pollock should not be dry. Therefore, our task is to flavor it with something wet, such as sauce, pouring, vegetables, cheese or something else, but always juicy.

There will be many recipes ahead, but let's start with the simplest and cheapest - with pollock slices in the “talker”. Simple, tasty and juicy.

By the way, this way you can cook any dry fish, such as cod, saffron cod, haddock and even blue whiting.

So, to cook pollock, stock up on the following foods:

  • gutted carcasses of pollock - 3-4 pcs., depending on size;
  • onions - 1 large or a pair of medium heads;
  • vegetable oil for frying;
  • salt, ground pepper;
  • flour and water.

Working process:

  1. Cut pollock from fins, entrails and black films into slices, add salt and pepper.
  2. Cut the onion into thin half rings.
  3. Spread pieces of fish seared in flour on hot oil and fry in a pan with butter until a nice crust.
  4. In a baking sheet or the same baking pan, put all the fried pieces and sprinkle with chopped onions.

  6. Pour over the fish with onions and send them into the medium-heated oven.
