🧂 Zutaten
- 4 x 6 oz Icelandic Arctic Char fillets(skin on)
- 1 medium Lemon(zested and juiced)
- 2 small Orange(segmented, juice reserved)
- 1 tbsp Honey

👨🍳 Zubereitung
- 1
Prepare the citrus segments: Cut off the ends of the lemon and oranges. Remove the peel and pith. Carefully cut between the membranes to release the segments, squeezing any juice from the membranes into a bowl. Reserve the juice and segments.

Make the glaze: In a small bowl, whisk together 1 tablespoon of the reserved citrus juice, honey, and 1 tablespoon of olive oil until combined. Add the Arctic char fillets to this mixture and toss to coat. Let marinate for at least 5 minutes.

Prepare the sauce: In the bowl with the remaining citrus segments and juice, add the remaining 2 tablespoons of olive oil, minced chives, and a pinch of flaky sea salt. Stir to combine.

Sear the fish: Heat the neutral oil in a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Remove the Arctic char fillets from the marinade, letting excess drip off. Place the fillets skin-side down in the hot skillet. Sear for 2-3 minutes until the skin is crispy.

Finish cooking: Flip the fillets and cook for another 4-5 minutes, or until cooked through and flaky. Alternatively, after searing the skin side, you can transfer the pan to a preheated oven at 400°F (200°C) for 5-7 minutes.

Serve: Transfer the cooked Arctic char to a serving platter. Spoon the citrus sauce over the fish. Season with freshly ground black pepper if desired. Serve immediately.
