Baked Dijon Arctic Char

We went to the local fish market and bought some Arctic Char. The owner of the market was nice enough to share her favorite Char recipe with us. While you probably can't buy Char, you could use this recipe on other mild fish such as halibut.

2 lbs Char fillet
2 T olive oil
2 t lemon juice
2 t Dijon mustard
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 t basil

Arrange Char fillets in a baking dish. Whisk all other ingredients together and spread over fish. Marinade in the refrigerator for one hour. Remove from the refrigerator an let stand at room temperature for 30 minutes. Preheat oven to 400 degrees.

Wrap in foil and bake for 10 - 15 minutes, depending on thickness of the fillets, or until the fish flakes with a fork.

Serves 4

We tried this marinade on the char and then grilled it. Yum
