Ingredients




2 tanigue fish steak slices
2 tablespoons minced garlic
sea salt/ rock salt
black pepper
liquid seasoning
1/2 a lemon
olive oil
1 tablespoon salted butter, optional

Preparation

1 To prepare: 2 Season the fish steaks with some salt and fresh cracked pepper on both sides. 3 Add a few drops of liquid seasoning. I used Knorr. 4 Squeeze juice from half a lemon over the fish steaks.  Set aside. 5 Mince garlic. 6 Heat a non-stick pan or skillet. 7 To cook: 8 Pour in olive oil, around 3 tablespoons, in the heated pan. Set to medium heat. 9 Lightly toast minced garlic in olive oil until light brown. 10 Sear the fish steak, 3 to 4 minutes on each side, depending on your preferred done-ness. 11 Flip over and continue cooking. Add butter if desired. 12 Plate and garnish with lemon wedge. 13 Pour over the remaining garlic-oil-butter over the fish. 14 Serve immediately.

About


For this recipe, you can also use bangus (milkfish) belly, blue marlin or salmon steak. This tender fish steak is best eaten with garlic fried rice. And I like to press more lemon over my fish as I eat, delish!
