Recipe with honey
Acacia Honey and Lemon Marinade for Fish
Acacia honey is mild and stays runny, so it whisks easily with lemon and oil into a delicate marinade that does not overpower tender fish.
⏱ Prep 15 min · 4 servings
Ingredients
- 2 tbsp acacia honey
- 1 unwaxed lemon (juice and zest)
- 4 tbsp olive oil
- 1 clove of garlic
- 1 tsp Dijon mustard
- 2 stalks of flat-leaf parsley
- Salt
- Pepper
Method
- Wash the lemon in hot water, finely grate the zest and squeeze the juice.
- Peel the garlic and finely chop or grate it.
- Whisk the acacia honey with the lemon juice and mustard; as the honey is runny, it dissolves easily.
- Gradually whisk in the olive oil until the marinade binds slightly.
- Stir in the lemon zest and garlic and season with salt and pepper.
- Finely chop the parsley and fold it in.
- Brush the fish fillets with it and leave to marinate in the fridge for at least 20 minutes, then fry or bake in the oven.
