Ingredients

  • Juice of 1½ lemons
  • 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
  • 3 garlic cloves
  • ¼ teaspoon kosher salt
  • teaspoon black pepper
  • ¼ teaspoon crushed red pepper
  • ½ teaspoon dried oregano
  • ¼ cup parsley
  • 4 white fish fillets
  • ¼ teaspoon kosher salt and black pepper
  • 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon capers
  • 3 tablespoons red onion
  • ¼ cup green olives

Instructions

  1. 1

    Make the olive chimichurri: In a medium-sized bowl, combine all the ingredients and stir until well incorporated. Set this mixture aside for later use.

  2. 2

    Season the fish: Generously apply salt and pepper to the fish fillets on both sides.

  3. 3

    In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the fillets with the skin facing down and sear them for 5 minutes. Carefully turn the fillets over and continue cooking for another 3 to 4 minutes, or until the fish is fully cooked.

  4. 4

    Serve right away, garnishing each fillet with two tablespoons of the olive chimichurri and a few slices of lemon.
