Preparation

Step 1

If fish will not fit in skillet, you can cut it into portions that would better fit your pan.

Pat fish dry and season both sides with salt and pepper. In a large skillet, heat butter over medium-high heat. Add juice of 1 lemon, cut it in half and squeeze.

When butter starts smoking, add the fillet to skillet, flesh side down (scales up), and cook until fish is golden brown and releases easily from skillet, about 5 minutes. The fish is very delicate, it's hard to flip over.

Gently flip fish. Put the zest of lemon on top of fish. Cook until opaque throughout, about 2 minutes.
