This Slow-Cooked White Fish with Charred Cabbage is a delicious quick meal to make. You can make this with any firm white fish that you prefer. I often use cod or halibut but you can see what your local fish shop has in stock. It’s called slow cooked, but remember that fish cooks quickly so even 15 minutes is slow for fish!
Start making this by placing the fish on a parchment lined baking sheet. While the fish bakes in the oven, prepare the cabbage. Cook the cabbage until it is half charred. I find it is best not to move the cabbage leaves as they cook. Once the cabbage and fish is cooked, peel the grapefruit and remove the pith. Slice into rounds and assemble the dish, starting with cabbage, then grapefruit and topped with fish and garnished with mint and olive oil.
To make Slow-Cooked White Fish with Charred Cabbage, you will need the following ingredients:
Preheat the oven to 370 °F.
Rub both sides of the fish 2 tablespoons of the olive oil. Place the fish on a rimmed baking sheet, lined with parchment paper.
Grate grapefruit zest directly over the fish fillets. Season with salt.
Bake the fish for 12-16 minutes until it is opaque and starting to flake.
Separate the leaves of ¼ head of green cabbage and tear the leaves into 3 - 4 inch pieces.
Heat the remaining tablespoon of olive oil in a medium skillet over medium-high. Cook the cabbage in the skillet for about 3 minutes without moving, until about half of the leaves are charred in places.
Season the cabbage with salt. Toss the content of the skillet and continue to cook for 2 more minutes, without stirring, until all leaves are charred in spots.
Cut all the peel and white pith from the grapefruit using a sharp knife. Discard and slice the remaining fruit into ½ inch thick rounds.
Divide the cabbage between two plates. Add the grapefruit rounds to the plates and season to taste with salt. Break the cooked fish into large pieces and divide among the plates.
Garnish with torn fresh mint. Drizzle with some more olive oil and season with pepper.

Never thought of adding fresh mint to fish before but it actually turned out quite good.
The fish came out a bit slimey not sure if I did something wrong or added too much oil but it was still edible, spices were good but going to stick with the fillets since they are easier.
