Pangasius fillet in a frying pan

Step-by-step cooking

1. Step 1:

   

   How to fry pangasius in a grill pan? First, remove the fish from the freezer and leave it to defrost at room temperature.

2. Step 2:

   

   Wet the defrosted fish with paper napkins from all sides to get rid of excess moisture.

3. Step 3:

   

   Pangasius put on a large flat plate or tray. Lubricate the fish with a silicone brush on both sides with oil, and then sprinkle with dry seasonings. I used garlic powder, fish seasoning and ground red paprika. Add salt to taste.

4. Step 4:

   

   While the fish is marinating, prepare all the other products. Wash lemon, pepper and herbs in cold water. Peel the garlic and onion and rinse. Cut the bell pepper in half, remove the core and seeds. If possible, use pepper of bright colors, so the finished dish will look more appetizing.

5. Step 5:

   

   Cut the lemon into two halves, cut the onion into half circles, chop the bell pepper, parsley and garlic as finely as possible.

7. Step 6:

   

   Put the grill pan on the stove and heat it up. The fillet can be fried whole, but it will be more convenient if you cut it into two parts. So, put the fish in a frying pan, reduce the flame to medium and cook until an appetizing golden color appears (it will take about two minutes or a little more).

8. Step 7:

   

   Gently turn over the pieces of pangasius, put a little garlic, bell pepper and parsley on top.

9. Step 8:

   

   Lightly press down the fish with a spatula, hold for a few seconds. Next, fry until cooked.

11. Step 10:

    

    Rinse the arugula and dry it with paper napkins. You can use green lettuce leaves, field lettuce, iceberg and so on. Add a few onion rings. Place the pangasius fillet on the greens, garnish with lemon slices and serve.
