Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare Herb Compound Butter

    In a medium bowl, mix softened butter, parsley, chives, lemon zest, and minced garlic until well combined. Place the mixture on a piece of plastic wrap, shape into a log, and refrigerate until firm.

  2. 2

    Sauté Asparagus

    Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add trimmed asparagus, season with salt and pepper, and sauté for about 5 minutes or until tender but still crisp.

  3. 3

    Cook Fish

    In the same skillet, add fish fillets skin-side down. Cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until the fish is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.

  4. 4

    Serve

    Plate the sautéed asparagus and top with the cooked fish. Slice the herb compound butter and place a slice on top of each fish fillet to melt.
