BAKED FISH WITH LEMON CREAM SAUCE (ONE BAKING DISH!)

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 200°C / 390°F (all oven types).
• Place fish in a baking dish - ensure the fish isn't crammed in too snugly. See video or photos in post. Sprinkle both sides of fish with salt and pepper.
• Place butter, cream, garlic, mustard, lemon juice, salt and pepper in a microwave proof jug or bowl. Microwave in 2 x 30 sec bursts, stirring in between, until melted and smooth.
• Sprinkle fish with shallots, then pour over sauce.
• Bake for 10 - 12 minutes, or until fish is just cooked. Remove from oven and transfer fish to serving plates. Spoon over sauce, and garnish with parsley and lemon wedges if using.

BROILED LEMON THYME POLLOCK

Steps:

• Preheat broiler. Oil broiler pan.
• Put fish, skin side down, on broiler pan and sprinkle with 1/4 teaspoon each of salt and pepper (total).

BROILED CHICKEN WITH LEMON AND THYME

Steps:

• Wipe the chicken pieces dry with paper towels. Combine the juice of the lemons, the garlic and olive oil and pour it over the chicken pieces. Turn so that they are coated with the mixture, sprinkle with thyme and marinate for one to two hours.
• Preheat coals or broiler.
• Sprinkle the chicken with salt and pepper and broil for about 30 minutes, or until cooked, turning once. Baste with any remaining marinade juices.

BROILED SARDINES WITH LEMON AND THYME

Steps:

• Heat the broiler until hot. Move the oven rack as close to the heat source as possible (four to two inches away). Heat a sturdy pan for about 5 minutes.
• Wrap a lemon slice around each thyme sprig and stuff inside the sardines; sprinkle with salt and pepper. When the pan is hot, remove it from the oven and pour in half of the olive oil, then put the sardines in the pan and drizzle with the remaining oil. Broil for 4 to 5 minutes, then check the sardines; they're ready when they're opaque, the tip of a knife flakes the thickest part easily, and the outside is nicely browned.
• To serve, carefully remove the sardines with a spatula, sprinkle with more herbs if you like, and pour the pan juices over all. Serve with lemon wedges.

GRILLED VEGETABLES WITH LEMON, THYME AND MUSTARD BASTING SAUCE

Steps:

• Combine all ingredients in heavy medium saucepan. Whisk over medium heat until butter melts and sauce is well blended. Season to taste with salt and pepper. (Can be made 3 hours ahead. Cool. Whisk over low heat to rewarm before using.)
• Arrange corn pieces, eggplant rounds and onion wedges in single layer on large baking sheet. arrange bell pepper strips, zucchini spears, asparagus spears and carrot slices in single layer on another large baking sheet. Transfer 1/2 cup sauce to small saucepan and reserve for dipping. Brush both sides of vegetables lightly with some of remaining basting sauce.
• Prepare barbecue (medium-high heat). Grill Corn, eggplant and onion until tender and lightly charred, brushing occasionally with basting sauce and turning with tongs, about 6 minutes. Transfer vegetables to small platter as vegetables finish grilling. Tent with foil to keep warm.
• Grill bell peppers, zucchini, asparagus and carrot until tender and lightly charred, brushing occasionally with basting sauce and turning with tongs, about 6 minutes. Transfer vegetables to same platter, arranging alongside other vegetables. Season all vegetables with salt and pepper. Garnish with fresh herb sprigs and lemon.
