24/7 ... this is an old recipe dude... you're bringing back memories... this is from the 70's. I do remember staying at a friends inland Punta Gorda cottage right off the Peace River and doing this recipe with a fresh caught Snook. The original recipe called for Mahi Mahi/Dolphin and I did make it again with it. You are right the mayo does do a good job of creating a coating and flavor to the fish.
I'm 65 and have caught many fish and prepared them different ways, I'm sure not as many as
@caneinorlando but I'm game for a Throughdown, lol.
Brother I've had 8 boats in my lifetime during the 70's through the 90's... used to be a regular fishing out of Chokoloskee in the 70's.
I'm not a restaurant cook but just do it at home for family and friends... and my wife of 12 years is super picky and frankly a pain. However, she loves what I make so I'm a happy camper.
One of everybody's favorite side dishes that goes well with baked fish is my mushroom risotto... it's a little work but well worth it.
A couple of weeks ago trying to use the frozen meats I've been hoarding, lol... I created a steak bits and vegetable rice that's sort of similar to fried rice that was a big hit... so I made it again last Sunday. I served it with roasted asparagus.
