👨🍳 Інструкції
- 1
Prepare the kingklip. Pat the fish fillets completely dry with paper towels. This is crucial for achieving a good sear. Season both sides generously with salt and freshly ground black pepper.
⏱️ 5 minutes - 2
Prepare the lemon-garlic butter. In a small bowl, combine the softened butter, minced garlic, fresh lemon juice, chopped parsley, and chives (if using). Mix well until thoroughly combined. Set aside.
⏱️ 5 minutes - 3
Cook the kingklip. Heat the olive oil in a large non-stick skillet or grill pan over medium-high heat until shimmering. Carefully place the seasoned kingklip fillets into the hot pan, presentation side down (usually the side without skin, if applicable).
⏱️ 4-5 minutes - 4
Flip the fish fillets. Once the first side is golden brown and releases easily from the pan, carefully flip them using a spatula. Cook for another 4-5 minutes, or until the fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork. Avoid overcrowding the pan; cook in batches if necessary.
⏱️ 4-5 minutes - 5
Finish and serve. Remove the pan from the heat. Spoon a generous amount of the prepared lemon-garlic butter over the hot fish fillets. The residual heat will melt the butter, creating a luscious sauce. Serve immediately.
