Recipe Description

This Fish in Yogurt Marinade is a fresh and healthy recipe that I personally love. Perch fillets have a firm and flaky white flesh which compliment the tangy, lemon zest and herb marinade just perfectly.

This recipe has quite an enhanced flavor palette that will quickly take you from home cook to chef in just 25 minutes. A great source of protein and vitamin B12 too.

Yogurt and fish normally wouldn't sound good at all together but after this meal I can confirm it totally is worth a try, absolutely mouth drenching!

Never thought you could make fish with yogurt, pretty damn good if I do say so myself.
