• Step 1

  Season fish with salt and pepper. Optional: Dust both sides with pan-searing flour; pat off excess.

• Step 2

  Heat olive oil in pan on MED-HIGH until oil faintly smokes; add fish. Sear 3 min until fish changes color one-quarter of way up and seared side has browned. Turn over.

• Step 3

  Reduce heat to MED. Cook about 4 min until internal temp reaches 120 degrees (check by inserting thermometer halfway into thickest part of fish).

• Step 4

  Add basting oil and butter to pan; swirl. Baste with spoon, 1-3 min, until internal temp reaches 130 degrees.

• Step 5

  Transfer fish to serving platter; let rest 2 min. Serve with your favorite sauce.

For a different approach, trying substituting 2 Tbsp of your favorite Wegmans Finishing Butter for the basting oil and butter above, adding finishing butter in at step 4. Note: See our Gluten-Free Pan-Searing Flour recipe for a gluten-free option.
