Chef notes
This is one of Carson's favorite fish recipes. It's so light and refreshing, which is why he often requests it alongside a steak. Surf and turf at its best!
Technique tip: Use a fork to check the doneness of the fish. It will flake easily once properly cooked.
Swap option: This is a very basic recipe that will work nicely with many types of fish.
