Pan-Seared Branzino with Lemon-Herb Sauce
Flaky branzino fillets pan-seared until the skin is perfectly crisp, drizzled with a bright lemon-herb sauce and served with tender roasted asparagus.
INGREDIENTS
7 oz Branzino fillets
1 tbsp Extra virgin olive oil
1 tbsp Fresh lemon juice
1 clove Garlic
2 tbsp Fresh parsley
1 tbsp Fresh dill
0.25 tsp Sea salt
0.25 tsp Black pepper
1 cup Asparagus spears
0.5 cup Cherry tomatoes
PREPARATION
Pat the branzino fillets completely dry with paper towels and season both sides with sea salt and black pepper.
Heat 0.5 tbsp of the olive oil in a large stainless steel or cast iron skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering.
Place the fish skin-side down in the pan, pressing gently with a spatula for 10 seconds to ensure even contact and prevent curling.
Sear for 3-4 minutes until the skin is golden and crispy, then carefully flip and cook for another 1-2 minutes until opaque.
Remove the fish from the pan and add the asparagus and cherry tomatoes, sautéing for 4-5 minutes until the tomatoes begin to blister.
In a small bowl, whisk together the remaining 0.5 tbsp olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, chopped parsley, and dill.
Plate the crispy branzino alongside the vegetables and spoon the vibrant lemon-herb sauce over the fish before serving.
