Mackerel in onion skins in 3 minutes, quick and tasty

Step-by-step preparation

Cooking time: 20 mins

1. STEP 1

   

   How to make mackerel in onion skins in 3 minutes? Prepare everything you need for this. Remove the frozen mackerel from the freezer in advance and leave it at room temperature so that it thaws on its own. Use the amount of onion peel at your discretion. The more it is, the richer the color of the finished fish will be. It is enough to take 1-2 handfuls.

2. STEP 2

   

   Rinse the onion peels in water. Then transfer to the pan in which you will cook the fish. Fill with water and put on fire.

3. STEP 3

   

   Bring water to a boil, add salt and simmer for 2-3 minutes. During this time, the broth will turn dark red. There should be enough salt so that in such a short cooking time the fish has time to salt.

4. STEP 4

   

   While the water is heating, prepare the fish. Cut off the head, tail and fins of the mackerel. Cut the belly along its entire length and remove the entrails. Then rinse the fish well in running water and place on a paper towel. Pat dry to remove excess moisture.

5. STEP 5

   

   Cut the fish into pieces and place them in boiling water with onion skins. Wait for the water with the fish to boil again and boil the fish for exactly 3 minutes.

6. STEP 6

   

   Using a slotted spoon, scoop out the fish and place it on a paper towel. Remove onion skins from fish.

7. STEP 7

   

   To remove the obsessive fishy smell, sprinkle the mackerel with lemon juice.

8. STEP 8

   

   Place the finished fish on a plate and garnish with lemon and onion. Very tasty both hot and cold. Bon appetit!

I completely agree with the author of the recipe: tasty, simple, easy, healthy. I made three fish. We ate two for dinner with rice, and decided to save one for salad. An incredibly simple and so healthy recipe. I read the comments and was surprised that no one had prepared this yummy dish. Much easier and faster than cooking fish in the oven or in a frying pan. Almost no smell. I always collect onion skins; we also like to salt mackerel in it. Don’t pass by this recipe: Mackerel in onion skins in 3 minutes, quick and tasty, try it, cook with pleasure.

Thanks for the quick recipe, well, with the peel....the main thing is not to get hung up on it.....peeled the onion...the peel into a bag and to the battery and save it up for yourself little by little. There is also a "crazy" option: buy a couple in the store onion and LOTS OF husks to boot
