Arctic Char with Mayo and Dill

Arctic Char is both a saltwater and freshwater fish found in deep icy waters way up north in Canada. It is very similar to trout and salmon.

As with most fish fresh ingredients are always best to use, but, the winters are so long the fresh ingredients run out fast. Here is a simple way to cook this tasty fish with dried herbs, spices and pantry items.

INGREDIENTS

1 (8 to 10 ounce) skin on Arctic Char filet

1 tablespoon mayonnaise

1 teaspoon lemon juice

1/2 teaspoon dried dill

Dash onion powder

Pinch garlic powder

Salt to taste

DIRECTIONS

Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and place fish skin side down on parchment paper and season with salt to taste.

Mix the remaining ingredients together well and spread over flesh of fish making sure you use all the mixture.

Place in a preheated 425 degree Fahrenheit oven and cook for 15 minutes or until fish flakes easily when poked with a fork. The cook time will vary depending on the thickness of the filet.

Enjoy!
