Directions
1.

Preheat the oven to 220C. In a blender, add all the herbs, garlic, lemon juice and the zest. Blend into a paste, slowly drizzling the olive oil in to help emulsify the paste into a sauce. Add the butter and blend until evenly mixed.

2.

Pat the plaice with kitchen towel then slather over the butter. Line a baking tray with baking paper, then add the plaice. Roast for 15 minutes, remove, then rest for five minutes

3.

Gently pull the meat off the fish with a fork and serve with chips. Enjoy
