Ingredients

Hake fillets
4 (about 6 oz each)
Water
enough to cover the fish
Salt
1 tablespoon
Black peppercorns
1 teaspoon
Bay leaves
2
Unsalted butter
2 tablespoons
Lemon
1, cut into wedges for serving

Instructions

  1. In a large pot, place the hake fillets and cover them with enough water to submerge completely.
  2. Add the salt, black peppercorns, and bay leaves to the pot.
  3. Bring the water to a boil over medium-high heat, then reduce the heat and let it simmer for 10-15 minutes, or until the hake is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.
  4. Carefully remove the hake from the pot and discard the cooking liquid.
  5. In a large skillet, melt the unsalted butter over medium heat.
  6. Once the butter is melted and bubbling, add the cooked hake fillets to the pan.

  8. Serve the corned hake hot, garnished with fresh lemon wedges for a zesty finish.
