Ingredients
  

  • 4 white fish fillets such as cod, tilapia, or haddock, about 6 oz each
  • 3 tablespoons All Purpose Blend infused olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon sea salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 lemon cut into wedges for serving
  • Fresh parsley chopped (for garnish)
Equipment:
  • Large skillet preferably non-stick or cast iron
  • Mixing bowl
  • Tongs or spatula for flipping the fish
  • Measuring spoons
  • Paper towels
  • Plate for resting the fish
  • Sharp knife

Method
 

Step-by-Step Guide:
  1.  
Prep the Fish (5 minutes):
  1. Start by patting the white fish fillets dry with paper towels. Dry fillets = crispy crust! Set them on a plate. This simple step helps the seasoning stick and ensures the fish gets that nice golden sear you’re aiming for.
  2.  
Season the Fish (2 minutes):
  1. In a small bowl, mix together the sea salt, ground black pepper, and garlic powder. Rub this mixture all over the fish fillets, coating both sides evenly.
  2. Drizzle 2 tablespoons of All Purpose Blend infused olive oil over the fillets and rub it in gently. You’ll already be smelling that aromatic olive oil—tempting, right?
  3.  
Heat the Skillet (5 minutes):
  1. Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add 1 tablespoon of All Purpose Blend infused olive oil to the pan and let it heat up until it shimmers. That shimmer means your oil is hot enough to get a good sear. If it’s smoking, the pan’s too hot—take it down a notch.
  2.  
Sear the Fish (6-8 minutes):
  1. Carefully place the seasoned fillets in the hot skillet. Don’t overcrowd them—give each fillet its own space! Sear the fish for about 3-4 minutes on the first side, until it’s golden and easily lifts from the pan with a spatula.
  2. Flip the fish and cook for another 3-4 minutes, or until the fillets flake easily with a fork. The fish should be opaque and cooked through (about 145°F internally).
  3.  
Rest and Serve (5 minutes):
  1. Remove the fish from the skillet and place it on a plate. Let it rest for a minute or two. Resting allows the juices to redistribute, keeping the fish tender and moist.
  2. Serve with lemon wedges for that extra citrusy brightness, and garnish with chopped parsley. It’s like dressing up your fish for a night out!

Notes

Chef's Tip: When flipping your fish, use tongs or a spatula with a delicate touch—it’s like handling a newborn puppy. You want that beautiful sear to stay intact! This dish pairs perfectly with a side of roasted vegetables or a light salad, but honestly, it’s so good you might just want to eat it straight from the pan.
