Total time: 23 min • Prep: 12 min • Cook: 11 min • Serves: 4 • Difficulty: Easy

The ease of this beautiful main dish is sure to make it a weeknight favorite at your table; it’s ready in under 30 minutes. Let the fish cook undisturbed in the pan so it browns nicely on both sides, checking it only when it’s time to flip it over and take it off the heat. You can substitute any firm, white fish you like, such as cod, halibut, or tilapia. Pair it with a side of orzo or riced cauliflower for a complete meal. Just be sure to get that started before you begin the fish so everything is hot and ready at the same time.
