Dorado is very tasty, but far from being a budget fish, but if you still have such a fish in your refrigerator, I bring to your attention one of the ways to cook dorado deliciously in the oven in foil. The recipe is quite simple, and the whole secret of cooking lies in the marinade. To make the fish dorado in foil in the oven tasty, you must first keep it in the marinade for several hours.

Cooking dorado in the oven in foil will not take you a lot of time and effort, somehow you won't have to stand at the stove, and in fact, the oven will do all the work for you. This recipe also works for the barbecue, so if you are going out on a picnic, simply marinate the dorado ahead of time and wrap it in foil before going out.

Below I will tell you how much to bake dorado in the oven in foil, as well as how to bake dorado in the oven in foil with an appetizing golden brown crust, as in my photo. Are you interested? Then welcome to my humble kitchen!

Ingredients for 2 servings:

  • 2 pcs. dorado fish (weighing 300-400 grams each)
  • 1 head of garlic
  • 1 small bunch of parsley
  • 4 tablespoons vegetable oil
  • 1 tsp sea ​​salt
  • juice with ½ lemon
  • zest with ½ lemon

How to cook dorado in the oven in foil:

Wash the dorado fish, clean it from the scales and remove the insides, rinse again.

Prepare all the ingredients for the marinade: wash the parsley, chop the garlic, rub the lemon zest.

In a deep plate, where we will marinate our fish, we mix vegetable oil, sea salt, garlic and lemon juice.

We crush the parsley with our hands so that the herb gives all its aromas to the marinade, and stuff the belly of the dorado with herbs with the marinade and slices of lemon, from which we squeezed the juice.

We tighten the plate with fish with cling film or cover with a lid, and send it to marinate in the refrigerator for at least two hours. The longer the fish is marinated, the tastier it will be in finished form. This marinade recipe is versatile and works with any fish.

Before cooking the dorado in the oven in foil, we remove all marinade residues from the fish carcass, including herbs, garlic and lemon pieces. I know that many culinary specialists bake dorado in the oven in foil with lemon, but personally I think this method is not entirely appropriate. During baking, lemon gives off bitterness to the fish, and this significantly affects the taste of the finished dish. We used lemon juice and zest in the marinade, which is enough to achieve a rich lemon flavor.

We spread the fish on a piece of foil folded in half and make several decorative cuts, as in my photo.

Then we wrap the foil in such a way that it can then be easily unfolded and not torn, and we put the fish on a baking sheet. We send our dorado fish to the heated up to 200 degrees. oven for 20-25 minutes.

Dorado (or dorado, sea carp, golden spar) is a very popular fish now with white soft and very tasty meat. The almost complete absence of small bones allows dorado to be actively used in cooking.

Dorado fish or sea carp live in subtropical and tropical waters. The main distribution area is the East Atlantic, the Mediterranean Sea. In cooking, specimens from 500 to 700 grams are used. Although there are also giant fish in nature. In the wild, dorado has a catchy color, shimmering in green, blue, gold, red. A dull fish becomes gray in color.

It is believed that the smaller the carcass, the tastier it will be after cooking. Dorado connoisseurs appreciate its excellent taste. Seabass, red mullet can compete with her from low-fat species for culinary preferences. The popularity of the sea carp is so great that this species is grown specifically for further consumption.

Dorado was prepared today. By the way, they still haven't convinced me that it is necessary to say dorada. Oceanic fish golden spar (Sparus aurata), in other words "sea carp", took its name "dorado" from the ancient Romanesque d'oro - gold. This fish has a spot on its head between the eyes of a golden color. And the term dorado itself is translated from Spanish as "golden". The legendary "golden country" that the Spanish conquistadors were looking for is El Dorado. And the California county with the same name near Lake Tahoe, in the mountains - I passed there once. So why dorada ??? Yes, God bless him. Whatever you call it, the fish won't change.

Dodaro is prepared in many ways. Frankly, I have never eaten tasteless cooked fish. The feeling that it is impossible to spoil the dorado. But, my belief is that the simpler the recipes for preparing dorado and the simpler the cooking process, the tastier.

  2. By the way, it is worth defrosting in an airtight bag, otherwise the fish scales will dry out and will be difficult to clean. By the way, I first examined the very spot on the head to which the fish owes its name.

Leave the fish to lie down while the onions are fried - about 15 minutes.
  5. Peel and chop the onion. Heat 2 tbsp in a skillet. l. olive oil (this is about 30-35 ml) and fry the onion in it until golden brown. You can cover the skillet with a lid and fry the onions over low heat, stirring often enough. The onions will be sweet and tasty.

Dorado in the oven in foil recipe step by step with photo

Initially, prepare the fish, it needs to be cleaned, rinsed thoroughly. I do not use whole fish in cooking, so I have it without a head, fins and tail. Very often, any fish, and even sea fish, has a specific mule smell. Sea crucian carp, depending on age, lives at different depths, so it is better to play it safe in this way.

Take onion and potatoes, peel and rinse under running water. Cut the onion into kotsyts, and the potatoes into slices. Also prepare all the spices for pickling.


At the market or in a specialized fish store, buy fish only whole, so you can track its freshness. But you can ask the seller to clean the fish and this happens before your own eyes. The advantage is time savings at home.

Take a small bowl, add all the spices in turn. Pour in olive oil and lemon juice. Mix everything thoroughly - you should get a fragrant gruel. With this mixture, you need to rub the fish outside and inside.


Traditionally, I use these herbs together because, as for me, they work best. You can use universal seasonings, but the result will not be the same. You can combine spices at your discretion, but it should be borne in mind that the absence of one seasoning or the addition of a new one will already give a completely different taste. So you can experiment.

Take a large piece of foil to wrap the whole fish without any gap. Put potatoes under the bottom of the dorado, and onions on top. Put the oven on preheat. The fish should be well wrapped. When the oven is hot, place the dorado in the middle of the baking sheet.


You can not use the baking sheet, because the foil is already serving as a dish.

Bake at 180 degrees for half an hour.

Remove fish from oven. Carefully remove the foil and leftover vegetables.


On a note! When baking in foil, it is important not to overexpose the fish, because instead of juicy and tender fish, you can get dry meat. Well, if you like very well-fried fish, then it is better to overexpose. It just depends on preference. Following this principle, dorado can be pulled out 5 minutes earlier or 5-10 minutes later.

Place the fish on a nice plate. And now we start decorating the dish. Use mayonnaise to make a mesh, waves or other elements. Sprinkle on top with dry or fresh chopped herbs. I use dry dill in winter, but in summer I prefer fresh herbs, especially parsley, celery and dill. Sprinkle a little lemon juice on top.

Dorado in the oven in foil turned out to be very fragrant. The meat is fragrant, juicy, it just melts in your mouth. Best paired with mashed potatoes with butter or boiled rice.


Lemon juice further enhances the delicate taste of the fish. It is important not to overuse, otherwise, instead of an exquisite dish, you may end up with meat with a rather pronounced sour taste. You can apply 1-2 drops of fresh juice.
