Ingredients
- 2 cobia fillets, 5oz each with skin and bones removed
- 2 tbsp flour
- 2 tbsp oil
- 4 tbsp butter, unsalted
- 1 tbsp lemon juice
- salt (to taste)
- black pepper (to taste)
- lemon wedges (for garnish)
- freshly chopped parsley (for garnish)
Instructions
- Add butter to skillet over medium heat. Melt and stir butter for about 3 minutes until it smells nutty and turns golden brown. Remove and pour into a bowl. Add lemon juice to the melted butter. Add salt and pepper to taste. Adjust accordingly (more lemon juice or salt and pepper) then set aside.
- Use a paper towel and pat dry cobia fillet. Season with salt and pepper, then add flour and rub evenly. Do the same for the other side.
- Add oil to skillet over high heat. Once the oil is hot enough and starting to smoke, add fish and cook till edges are golden, about 1½ minutes. Carefully flip and cook through. Fish should be flaky when forked. Transfer to serving plates.
- Add around 1 tbsp of lemon butter to fish and garnish with lemon wedges and freshly chopped parsley. Serve and enjoy!
