Ingredients
- 4 g (5oz) john dory fish fillets or Turbot, halibut, snapper
- 2 small shallot finely chopped
- 2 tablespoon olive oil
- 30 g (2 tbsp) butter
- 1 lemon juice organic
- 30 ml (2 tbps) white wine
- ¼ tsp (good pinch) each black pepper
- ¼ tsp (good pinch) each fleur de sel salt
- 1 tablespoon chives finely chopped, fresh; or parsley
Instructions
- Melt the butter with the olive oil in a non-stick pan until gently foaming over medium heat. Sauté the chopped shallots until translucent then add the John Dory filets. Pan-fry the filets for only about 1 minute on each side, ensuring they're well coated in the butter and oil. Splash in the wine, season with a little salt and a few turns of the peppermill.
- Turn the heat to low and cover the pan. Leave for 3 minutes then take off the heat.
- Squeeze over the lemon juice. If the sauce is too liquid, strain into a saucepan and reduce for one minute. Serve immediately with chopped fresh herbs.
Notes
- Serve with extra lemon, glazed Vichy carrots, sautéed green beans and potatoes, For something different, add a little rhubarb compote.
- Wines: Enjoy with a chilled glass of white from Alsace, Bourgogne, Bordeaux or the Loire such as a pinot blanc, Saint Aubin, Graves, Entre-deux-Mers or Saumur.
