- To cook the barramundi or other fish, season the fillets generously with salt and pepper and drizzled with a little oil. Heat an oven proof non stick frying pan on the stove. When hot, place the fish fillets skin side down in the pan. Allow to cook for a couple of minutes until the skin golden brown and comes away easily from the pan.
