Baked Haddock Recipe

This baked haddock is perfectly flaky and delicious and cooked in the oven to perfection! Ready in less than 20 minutes, it’s perfect for a quick and healthy dinner.

When it comes to quick and healthy dinner recipes, I have a few favorites up my sleeve. I like making a chicken parmesan and of course, nothing beats some low calorie pizza. However, when I find fresh haddock at the grocery store, I love to whip up a simple baked haddock.

What I love about this dish is just how simple and delicious it is. Haddock has an unfair stigma that it is a hard fish to cook, but this recipe proves otherwise. A secret tip guarantees perfectly flaky and tender fish every single time.

Start by patting dry the fish filets, then season them with salt and pepper. Next, add all the remaining ingredients, except for the thyme, into a mixing bowl and mix until combined.

Now, add the tomato mixture into a 9 x 13-inch baking dish. Place the haddock filets on top and bake for 15-17 minutes, or until the fish is cooked and flaky. Remove them from the oven and serve immediately.

Haddock, and/or any kinds of white fish, should always be cooked at 200C/400F in the oven. The higher than average heat allows the exterior to cook faster, which then filtrates throughout the rest of the fish, giving it the gorgeous, flaky texture.

This recipe uses four pieces of haddock and takes 17 minutes to cook completely. If cooking just one filet, you’d be looking at around 13 minutes.

Baked haddock has just 135 calories per serving. This includes the olive oil, lemon, garlic, and cherry tomatoes.

All white fish, including haddock, should always be cooked uncovered. This is because of the lower fat content they contain. Higher fat cuts of fish, like salmon, can be cooked covered.
