Instructions
- Combine lemon zest, pepper, garlic, 2 tablespoons olive oil, and salt to taste in a small bowl.
- Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large skillet (preferably nonstick) on medium-high heat. Add asparagus, salt and pepper to taste, and a small spoonful of the lemon pepper (about 1/2 teaspoon) to the skillet. Stir to coat, and sauté until browned and cooked.
- Meanwhile, while asparagus is cooking, coat the fish with the rest of the lemon pepper mixture evenly on both sides.
- When asparagus is cooked (after approximately 10 minutes), remove to plates to serve.
- Add remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil to skillet and place the fish in the skillet.
- After 2 minutes, flip fish to the other side.
- After about 2 more minutes, the fish should be cooked through (if it flakes easily with a fork, it is done). Remove to plates with the asparagus and serve with lemon wedges if desired.
