Preheat the oven to 200 ºC.
Place frozen Cape Whiting fillets onto a baking tray and bake for 20-25 minutes. Alternatively cook in an air fryer for the recommended time.
Add a glug of olive oil to a large frying pan over medium-high heat. Add the onion and red pepper and fry for 4 minutes until softened. Add the garlic and fry for another minute until fragrant.
Add the cream and the mustard and mix well to combine. Simmer for 5 minutes to reduce the cream slightly. Add the spinach and allow it to wilt into the cream. Add in a squeeze of lemon juice, then season with salt and pepper and remove from the heat.
Serve the Cape Whiting steaks on a bed of spinach with cream sauce. Top each steak with toasted Parmesan sprinkle and serve immediately.
