Golden Pan-Seared Rockfish with Zesty Lemon
Pan-seared rockfish fillets with a crisp golden crust served over fluffy quinoa and tender asparagus, finished with a bright and zesty lemon-garlic drizzle.
INGREDIENTS
8 oz Rockfish fillet
0.5 cup Cooked quinoa
1 cup Asparagus spears
1 tbsp Avocado oil
1 tbsp Lemon juice
1 tsp Lemon zest
1 clove Garlic
0.25 tsp Sea salt
0.25 tsp Black pepper
1 tsp Fresh parsley
PREPARATION
Pat the rockfish fillets completely dry with a paper towel and season both sides evenly with sea salt and black pepper.
Heat the avocado oil in a large stainless steel or cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat until the oil is shimmering.
Carefully place the fish in the pan and sear for 3 to 4 minutes without moving it until a golden-brown crust forms.
Flip the fillets gently and cook for another 2 to 3 minutes until the fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork.
While the fish cooks, steam the asparagus spears for about 4 minutes until they are tender yet remain vibrant green.
In a small bowl, whisk together the lemon juice, lemon zest, minced garlic, and finely chopped parsley.
Plate the warm cooked quinoa and top with the seared rockfish and steamed asparagus, then spoon the zesty lemon mixture over the fish before serving.
