Instructions

1. Preheat your oven to 400°F.
2. Set the mackerel fillets with the skin side up on the parchment-lined baking sheet. Pour some olive oil over the fish and dredge with some salt and pepper to taste. Roast in the oven for 8-10 minutes. Crisp the fish and remove once cooked through. Reserve.
