How to make it
- BROTH-
- Heat a tsp of regular olive oil in a small sauce pan.
- Add shallot and cook on medium heat until soft and golden.
- Add chicken broth, squeeze lemon juice right into pan and grate some zest in.
- Simmer until heated through.
- Cover and leave on back burner.
- PEAS-
- In a food processor...add peas, garlic clove(whole), salt and pepper to taste.
- Pulse until roughly mixed.
- Then, with processor running, slowly add extra virgin olive oil until smooth.
- Transfer mixture to bowl and stir in cheese.
- Set aside.
- FISH-
- Drizzle some extra virgin olive oil in a saute pan and while it is heating, drizzle oil and sprinkle salt and pepper on one side of the fish.
- Place the fish, seasoned side down, in the hot pan and season the other side of fish while it is in the pan.
- Let fish cook for about 5 minutes on each side until it develops a nice brown crispy crust on the outside and is still tender inside.
- TO SERVE-
- Add about 1 ladle full of broth into each of two shallow bowls.
- Place large dollop (about 1/4 of mixture) of pea puree in a mound in center of broth, making a bed for the fish.
- Gently but firmly place fish on each mound with a pair of tongs.
- Serve immediately with a spoon!
- *you can garnish with extra lemon zest if you like.
- I have broth and peas left over, it's really enough for four...just make more fish!
