Time 40m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

Ingredients

1 cup couscous (preferably whole wheat)
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
3/4 teaspoon smoked paprika
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
4 6-ounce skinless catfish fillets
2 lemons (1 thinly sliced, 1 juiced)
1/3 cup roughly chopped fresh parsley or mint
1 medium red onion, thinly sliced
1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
2 cloves garlic, finely chopped

Steps:

Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Lay a 2 1/2-foot-long sheet of aluminum foil on a baking sheet, letting the ends hang off. Lay another sheet of foil perpendicular on top. Rinse the couscous in a fine-mesh sieve under cold water. Mix the olive oil, paprika and 3/4 teaspoon each salt and pepper in a small bowl. Pile the couscous in the center of the foil; toss with 1/2 tablespoon of the seasoned oil and spread in an 8-inch-square layer.
Brush the fish fillets on both sides with 1 tablespoon of the seasoned oil and arrange side by side on top of the couscous. Toss the lemon slices, parsley, red onion, tomatoes, garlic and the remaining 1/2 tablespoon seasoned oil in a bowl, then scatter evenly over the fish and couscous. Drizzle with 2/3 cup water, then bring the opposite ends of the foil together, fold over and crimp closed to make a sealed packet. Transfer the foil packet (on the baking sheet) to the oven and bake 25 minutes.
Open the foil packet; divide the fish among plates. Toss the couscous and vegetables; serve with the fish. Sprinkle with the lemon juice.

CRISPY OVEN-BAKED-FISH WRAPS

Crispy Oven-Baked-Fish Wraps image

Shake up the standard fish fry night with this meal. Much easier than deep-frying, strips of firm white fish are coated in panko and baked in the oven until crisp on the outside and flaky and tender on the inside. Serve with soft flour tortillas and coleslaw mix for a fun weeknight dinner.

Ingredients

1 cup panko
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
1 pound skinless cod or halibut fillets (3 to 4), cut into 1-inch strips
6 tablespoons mayonnaise
1 tablespoon distilled white vinegar
3 cups coleslaw mix
1/2 small green apple, cored and cut into matchsticks
8 flour tortillas (each 6 inches), warmed
Tender herbs, such as cilantro and dill, and lime wedges, for serving

Steps:

Preheat oven to 400°F. On a rimmed baking sheet, toss panko with oil and 1/4 teaspoon salt. Toast in oven, stirring once, until golden, about 5 minutes. Transfer to a plate; let cool slightly.
Pat fish dry; season with salt and pepper. In a medium bowl, whisk together 2 tablespoons mayonnaise and 2 teaspoons water; toss with fish to coat completely. Coat fish with panko, patting to adhere. Place on a wire rack set inside a rimmed baking sheet and bake until cooked through, 12 to 14 minutes.
In a large bowl, whisk together remaining 1/4 cup mayonnaise and vinegar. Toss with coleslaw and apple; season to taste. Fill tortillas with fish, coleslaw mixture, and herbs; serve with lime wedges.
