  • 812 ounces skinless white fish fillets
  • Celtic sea salt and pepper
  • 3 tablespoons grass fed unsalted butter
  • 4 garlic cloves, minced
  • 4 tablespoons roughly chopped flat leaf parsley
  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice

Instructions

  1. Rinse the fish fillets and blot dry with a paper towel. Season with salt and pepper.

  6. Uncover pan, and continue basting fish with butter until it is just cooked through, another minute or two.
  7. Add 3 tablespoons of parsley and turn off the heat.
  8. Transfer fish onto a platter or individual plates. Tilt pan and spoon butter sauce evenly over fillets.
  9. Sprinkle with remaining tablespoon parsley and lemon juice.
