Step-by-step preparation

Cooking time: 1 hr 30 mins

1. STEP 1

   

   How to bake mackerel pieces in the oven? Prepare all the necessary ingredients. Peel the onion and rinse in cold water. Mackerel can be used either fresh or frozen. Remove the frozen one from the freezer in advance and let it defrost at room temperature.

2. STEP 2

   

   Cut off the head of the fish and remove the entrails. Rinse it in water and pat lightly with paper towels to remove excess moisture. Cut the cleaned fish into pieces.

3. STEP 3

   

   For the marinade, mix mayonnaise with ketchup. Add salt to taste. Coat each piece of fish with the mixture. Leave the fish to marinate for 1 hour. Turn on the oven to 180 degrees in advance.

4. STEP 4

   

   Cut the peeled onion into half rings. To prevent the onion from stinging your eyes when slicing, rinse it and the knife with cold water.

5. STEP 5

   

   Place fish pieces in a baking dish.

6. STEP 6

   

   Place chopped onion between the fish pieces. Brush the top of the fish and onions with the remaining marinade. Place the dish with the fish in an oven preheated to 200 degrees for about 30 minutes until a beautiful golden crust appears.

7. STEP 7

   

   Remove the finished dish from the oven and serve hot. This fish can be complemented with a side dish of mashed potatoes or boiled rice.

I really liked the mackerel in the store, so I bought two fish. I came home and decided to find the recipe in Khrumka. True, it turned out tender and juicy, although mackerel is usually a bit dry when cooked. I added a little sour cream to the mayonnaise and ketchup. Nothing more like that. I did it as in the recipe. I liked the fish and the quick recipe. Thank you, Julia
