Method

Cooking Instructions

Prepare the Fish

Season the fish fillets with salt and black pepper on both sides. Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.

Sear the Fish

Once the oil is hot, add the fish fillets to the skillet. Sear for about 4-5 minutes on each side until golden brown and cooked through. Remove the fish from the skillet and set aside.

Make the Sauce

In the same skillet, add the remaining tablespoon of olive oil. Add minced garlic and sauté for about 30 seconds until fragrant. Then add the cherry tomatoes, olives, capers, and sliced almonds. Cook for about 5-7 minutes until the tomatoes are softened.

Combine and Serve

Return the fish to the skillet, gently spooning the sauce over the fillets. Squeeze fresh lemon juice over the top and sprinkle with chopped parsley. Cook for another 2 minutes to heat through. Serve immediately.
