Fish

Sautéing

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Fish

    Pat the Atlantic striped bass fillets dry with paper towels to remove excess moisture. This helps achieve a nice sear. Season both sides of the fillets with salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and paprika.

Sautéing

  1. 2

    Heat the Pan

    In a large skillet, add the olive oil and butter over medium-high heat. Allow the butter to melt and foam slightly, but do not let it brown.

  2. 3

    Cook the Fillets

    Once the oil is hot, carefully add the seasoned striped bass fillets to the skillet. Sauté for about 3-4 minutes on one side until golden brown.

  3. 4

    Flip and Finish Cooking

    Gently flip the fillets using a spatula and cook for another 3-4 minutes on the other side until the fish flakes easily with a fork. Drizzle fresh lemon juice over the fillets during the last minute of cooking.

Serving

  1. 5

    Garnish and Serve

    Remove the sautéed fillets from the pan and transfer them to serving plates. Sprinkle with chopped fresh parsley and serve with lemon wedges on the side.
