Instructions
  1. Pat the fillets dry and season lightly with salt and pepper.
  2. Heat the pan with butter over medium-high heat; sear the fillets skin-side down for 2–3 minutes to get a nice color then turn for 1–2 minutes depending on thickness; remove and keep warm.
  3. Lower the heat, pour the cream into the pan, scraping up the bits; let reduce gently for 2–3 minutes until it coats the back of a spoon.
  4. Off the heat, stir in a few drops of truffle oil (1–2 depending on intensity) and adjust seasoning.
  5. Top the fillets with sauce, serve immediately with steamed asparagus or a bed of sautéed spinach.
Variants
  • Replace truffle oil with lemon zest for a more tangy version.
Tips
  • Do not overheat the truffle oil; add it off the heat to preserve the aroma.
  • Choose fresh and firm fish for precise cooking.
FAQ
