Mareco Lemon Herb Skillet

Ingredients

• 300 g mareco (or similar firm white fish fillets)
• 0.5 tsp kosher salt
• 0.25 tsp black pepper
• 2 tbsp olive oil
• 2 tbsp lemon juice
• 1 tsp lemon zest(optional)
• 2 tbsp chopped fresh parsley
• 1 tbsp chopped fresh dill (or more parsley)(optional)

Instructions

1. 1

   Prep (10 minutes): Pat the mareco dry, then season both sides with salt and black pepper. Chop the parsley and dill, and zest the lemon if using.

2. 2

   Sear (about 7 minutes): Heat 1 tbsp olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add the mareco and sear until browned and nearly cooked through, about 3–4 minutes per side depending on thickness.

3. 3

   Finish (about 5 minutes): Reduce heat to medium. Add the remaining 1 tbsp olive oil, lemon juice, and lemon zest (if using). Spoon the lemon-herb oil over the fish for 1–2 minutes.

4. 4

   Serve (within remaining time): Turn off the heat and stir in parsley and dill. Let stand 1 minute, then serve immediately.
