Fish and Garnish
Method
Preparation and Cooking
- 1
Prepare the Marinade
In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, soy sauce, sesame oil, lemon juice, salt, and black pepper until well combined.
- 2
Marinate the Fish
Place the yellowtail fillets in a shallow dish and pour the marinade over the fish. Ensure the fillets are evenly coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
- 3
Prepare Scallions
While the fish is marinating, wash and chop the scallions into thin slices, separating the white and green parts.
- 4
Cook the Fish
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Remove the yellowtail from the marinade, allowing excess marinade to drip off. Place the fillets in the skillet and cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until the fish is cooked through and flakes easily.
- 5
Add Scallions
In the last minute of cooking, add the white parts of the scallions to the skillet, stirring them around the fish. Remove from heat.
- 6
Serve
Transfer the cooked yellowtail to a serving platter and garnish with the green parts of the scallions. Drizzle any remaining marinade from the skillet over the fish before serving.
