Seared Fish Fillet with Pea Puree and Yellow Sauce

Ingredients

• 4 filets white fish fillets
• 2 cups frozen peas
• ½ cup plain yogurt
• 1 teaspoon turmeric
• 3 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 teaspoon salt
• ½ teaspoon black pepper
• 1 teaspoon red pepper flakes

Instructions

1. 1

   Pat the 4 fish fillets dry and season both sides with 1/2 tsp salt and 1/4 tsp black pepper.

2. 2

   In a blender, combine 2 cups peas, 1/2 cup yogurt, 1/2 tsp salt, and 1/4 tsp black pepper. Blend until smooth, about 1 minute.

3. 3

   In a small bowl, mix 1/2 cup yogurt, 1 tsp turmeric, and a pinch of salt to make the yellow sauce.

4. 4

   Heat 2 tbsp olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high. Place the fish skin-side down and cook until the skin is crispy and golden, about 4 minutes.

5. 5

   Flip the fish and cook for another 2-3 minutes, until the flesh is opaque and flakes easily with a fork.

6. 6

   Spread the pea puree on plates, top with the fish, drizzle with the yellow sauce, and sprinkle with 1 tsp red pepper flakes and the remaining 1 tbsp olive oil.

7. 7

   Garnish with microgreens if desired and serve immediately.
