After working up an appetite on a day of fishing, it’s time to head home to gut the fish and prepare your meal.

This simple recipe requires minimal effort.
- Grab an oven suitable bowl and place a generous layer of foil in the bottom.
- Take your freshly caught, gutted and cleaned fish and place inside the foil.
- Sprinkle some chilli infused oil inside and outside the fish.
- Place a small amount of butter inside the fish
- Sprinkle some black pepper and salt over the fish
