🥘 Ingredients

12 items

• 4 pieces white fish fillets (e.g., cod, tilapia, or halibut)
• 3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
• 2 tablespoons lemon juice
• 1 tablespoon red wine vinegar
• 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
• 1 teaspoon honey
• 2 cloves garlic cloves, minced
• 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
• 0.5 teaspoons salt
• 0.25 teaspoons black pepper
• 2 tablespoons butter
• 0.25 cup water

📝 Instructions

9 steps

1. Pat the fish fillets dry with a paper towel and season both sides with salt and pepper.

2. In a large skillet over medium heat, melt 2 tablespoons of butter. Add the fish fillets and cook for 2-3 minutes per side, depending on thickness, until they are golden brown and flake easily with a fork. Remove the fish from the skillet and set aside on a plate.

3. In the same skillet, add the minced garlic and sauté for 30 seconds, until fragrant.

4. Deglaze the skillet by adding the water, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pan. Let the liquid reduce for 1-2 minutes.

5. In a small bowl, whisk together olive oil, lemon juice, red wine vinegar, Dijon mustard, and honey to make the vinaigrette.

6. Pour the vinaigrette into the skillet with the reduced liquid and stir to combine. Let the vinaigrette warm for 1-2 minutes, but do not boil.

7. Return the fish fillets to the skillet and spoon the warm vinaigrette over the fish. Cook for an additional 1-2 minutes to meld the flavors.

8. Remove from heat and garnish with fresh parsley before serving.

9. Serve the fish immediately, drizzled with the vinaigrette, alongside your favorite side dishes like steamed vegetables or rice.
