cooked shrimp recipes

When baking fish, prepare the marinade, preheat the oven, and put the fish in for the prescribed amount of time. Be sure to check the fish often to ensure that it doesn't overcook.

Remember these easy tips with buying and cooking fish:

* Washing of the hands before touching the fish is important.

* For moister broiled fish, first steam or poach the fish until close to being done and then brown it under the broiler.

* When baking fish, you want to use high heat, typically between 400 and 450 degrees.

* Each serving should be about 6-8 ounces for fillets or steaks, and 8-12 ounces for whole fish.

* Another test to use for doneness is to check the meat with a knife to see if it is firm and beginning to separate or flake.
