Mackerel baked in the oven
Description
In our family, mackerel is always a big hit. We eat mackerel in many different ways—cold-smoked, hot-smoked, fried, and, of course, baked. Baked mackerel in the oven is definitely one of the best ways to prepare this fish, so if you're wondering what to cook with mackerel, I recommend trying this photo recipe. Good luck!
