Fish Fillet with Rosemary image

Any firm-fleshed white fish is the perfect vehicle for this deep-flavored, earthy sauce; you can also try it with fresh sea scallops. If you don't want to flour the fish, place all the ingredients in a parchment paper or foil pouch and bake in the oven instead.From the book "Lucinda's Rustic Italian Kitchen," by Lucinda Scala Quinn (Wiley).

Yield Makes 2 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 pound skinless white fish such as red snapper or sea bass, cut into 6- to 8-ounce fillets, about 3/4-inch thick (if your fillets are thinner, lessen cooking time)
Coarse salt
Freshly ground black pepper
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour, preferably Wondra
1 1/2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 clove garlic, minced (about 1 tablespoon)
1/4 cup Italian white wine, or dry vermouth
2 tablespoons pitted black olives, sliced, such as Gaeta or Nicoise
2 teaspoons fresh rosemary leaves, plus 2 sprigs for garnish
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
1 lemon, cut in wedges for garnish

Steps:

  • Season the fish on both sides with salt and pepper. Lightly dredge it in the flour, shaking off the excess.
  • Heat a medium nonstick skillet over medium-high heat until the pan is very hot. Add the olive oil. Place the fish in the skillet and cook for 2 minutes without moving the fillets. Turn and cook 2 more minutes, reducing heat if necessary to prevent browning. Pour off the fat and flip the fish again.
  • Making room in the side of the pan, add the garlic and cook, stirring, for 10 to 15 seconds, being careful not to let it burn. Immediately add the wine, olives, and rosemary leaves and swirl them around in the pan as the wine reduces, about 1 1/2 minutes. Divide the fish between 2 warm serving plates. Swirl the butter into the sauce and pour the sauce evenly over the fish. Garnish with fresh rosemary sprigs and serve with lemon wedges.

This recipe was easy to follow and the fish turned out great. I used salmon and it was cooked perfectly. The rosemary and lemon gave it a really nice flavor. I will definitely be making this again.

I made this recipe for my wife and she loved it. She said it was the best fish she had ever had. I'm definitely going to be making this again.

This recipe was a disaster. The fish was overcooked and the rosemary burned. I'm not sure what I did wrong, but I won't be trying this recipe again.

I thought this recipe was just okay. The fish was a little dry and the rosemary flavor was a bit too strong for me. I probably won't be making this again.

I'm not a big fan of fish, but I loved this recipe. The rosemary and lemon really helped to mask the fishy taste. I would definitely make this again.

I tried this recipe last night and it was amazing. The fish was so tender and flaky, and the rosemary gave it a really nice flavor. I served it with roasted vegetables and it was a perfect meal.
