Pan Fried Fish with Lemon and Parsley-cont

If you are wondering what to cook for dinner tonight, pan-fried fillets of fish take less than 12 minutes to prepare and cook. Add in some steamed vegetables and maybe even some rice or potatoes and a tasty (and healthy) dinner is all ready!

This method of pan frying is great for cooking fish like salmon, tuna, swordfish, mackerel, bluefish, cod, catfish, butterfish, and lots more!

The fish I’m about to prepare is called Kona Kampachi and was sent to me from Kona Blue in Hawaii! (Mahalo!)

("The Latin name of this fish is Seriola rivoliana. The species is also referred to by various common names around the world including: Kahala, Almaco jack, Songoro amberjack & Medregal")

In the two years I have been working on startcooking.com I have only ever received a product sample once before. I had never even heard of this fish, so I decided to give it a try.

WOW! It is probably one of the best pieces of fish I’ve ever prepared. It had a rich, mild flavor, a bit sweet almost, and a very firm texture. In order to appreciate the full flavor of this fish, I cooked it in the simplest form possible- with just salt, pepper, lemon and parsley.

The result was extraordinary! If you happen to see this at your local store or fishmonger, give it a try. You won’t be sorry.

***********

I like to buy my fish no more than one day in advance of cooking it. Fish needs to be fresh to be at its best.

If you don’t already have them in your refrigerator, be sure to pick up some fresh parsley and a lemon as well!

Here’s a quick preview of how I prepared this fish:

* Season the fish with salt and pepper.
* Fry it in a small amount of regular olive oil.
* Wipe out the pan, melt some butter, add lemon juice and parsley, pour it on the fish… and that’s it!

Be sure to use regular olive oil. Extra virgin or virgin olive oil can burn if they are used to fry food at too high of a temperature. Vegetable or peanut oil would be OK to use as well.

The lemon and parsley need to be prepared before starting to fry the fish.
