Gulf Fish Pontchartrain Recipe

Cooking Instructions

1. 1

   Prepare the Fish

   Season the gulf fish fillets with salt and black pepper on both sides. Dredge the fillets in all-purpose flour, shaking off any excess.

2. 2

   Sauté the Fish

   In a large skillet, melt 2 tablespoons of butter over medium-high heat. Add the fillets and cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Remove the fish from the skillet and keep warm.

3. 3

   Make the Lemon Butter Sauce

   In the same skillet, add the remaining butter and minced garlic. Sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant, then add lemon juice and chopped parsley. Stir to combine.

4. 4

   Add Crabmeat

   Gently fold in the fresh crabmeat into the lemon butter sauce, cooking for an additional 1-2 minutes until heated through.

5. 5

   Cook Haricots Verts

   In a separate pot, bring salted water to a boil. Add the haricots verts and cook for about 3-4 minutes until tender-crisp. Drain and set aside.

6. 6

   Serve

   Place the sautéed fish fillets on a plate, top with the crabmeat and lemon butter sauce. Serve alongside the haricots verts.
