About Baked monkfish

Baked monkfish is a delicious seafood dish celebrated for its tender texture and mild flavor, often referred to as the "poor man's lobster." This dish typically features monkfish fillets seasoned with herbs, garlic, and olive oil, then baked to perfection. Originating in Mediterranean and European cuisines, baked monkfish is a versatile entrée that pairs beautifully with vegetables, grains, or light sauces. Monkfish is a lean protein source rich in essential nutrients like vitamin B12, selenium, and phosphorus, supporting energy production and immune function. Its low-fat profile and high protein content make it an excellent choice for health-conscious diners. However, depending on preparation, added fats like butter or cream sauces may increase calories and saturated fat. Opting for heart-healthy ingredients, like olive oil and fresh herbs, highlights its nutritious qualities while keeping the dish light and flavorful.
