Freshly ground black pepper(try Caraluzzi’s Mixed Pepper Blend
6bronzini filletswith skin
2tablespoonsolive oil
Fresh lemon juice to sprinkle over fish fillets
Instructions
Puree herbs, lemon zest, 1/8 teaspoon salt and ¼ cup oil in blender or small-bowl food processor until smooth. Transfer to small bowl; whisk in remaining ¼ cup of oil. Season herb oil to taste with coarse salt and pepper and set aside.
Preheat oven to 400°F. Pat fillets dry. Sprinkle on both sides with a little bit of kosher salt and freshly ground pepper. Heat oil in large skillet over medium-high heat – a non-stick skillet is easier. Add 3 fillets, skin side down. Sauté for about 3 minutes. Transfer fillets, skin side down, to baking sheet. Repeat with remaining fillets.
Drizzle each fillet with 1/2 tablespoon herb oil. Roast fillets until just opaque in center, about 9 to10 minutes. Plate the fish and drizzle remaining herb oil over each fillet. Finish off each fillet with a squeeze of lemon juice.
Serve with roasted vegetables, leafy greens, or a grain salad.
