Pan-Seared White Fish with Citrus Gremolata

Chef note

Keep the flavours precise, the plate composed, and the final presentation grounded in Chef Stone's disciplined Pan-African style.

Ingredients

4 lemons
finely chopped parsley
finely minced garlic
Freshly ground black pepper
skinless white fish fillet
extra-virgin olive oil
hot red pepper flakes
Salt to taste
Chef Stone's Secret Spice™️ to taste

Method

1

Zest and juice one lemon to yield 2 teaspoons of zest and 3 tablespoons of juice. Cut the remaining 3 lemons into thin slices.

2

To prepare the gremolata, combine the lemon zest, finely chopped parsley, minced garlic, and 1/4 teaspoon of salt and black pepper in a small bowl, mixing with a fork.

3

In a separate large bowl, toss the fish pieces with the reserved lemon juice, olive oil, red pepper flakes, and season with salt, black pepper, and Chef Stone's Secret Spice™️.

4

Alternately thread 4 lemon slices and 3 fish chunks onto each of eight 10-inch skewers.

5

Heat a stovetop grill pan over medium heat.

6

Grill the skewers for 8 to 10 minutes, turning them halfway through, until the fish is opaque and cooked through.

7

To serve, arrange 2 skewers on each plate, sprinkle generously with the prepared gremolata, and finish with a drizzle of extra-virgin olive oil.

Plating direction

Serve the fish on a clean white coupe plate, spoon the citrus gremolata around the fillet, and finish with restrained herbs for a bright, minimalist presentation.
