- Cook the fish in batches if your pan is not big enough. You want the fish to develop a nice buttery brown color and not steam them, which is what will happen if you crowd the pan. Also, wipe out the pan between batches as butter burns easily and can get blackish if the heat is too high.
- If you're fish is burning and not browning, turn down or remove the pan from heat, add some olive oil. If it's uber hot then add an ice cube. Olive oil tempers the butter and lowers the possibility of the fish burning in a pan that is too hot.
