Rinse the fillets under cold water and pat them dry with paper towels. Season both sides with salt and pepper. If you&#8217;re feeling fancy, this is where you can sneak in a touch of anchovy fillets, finely chopped, for an <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">anchovy garlic butter <\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">surprise that will take your taste buds to the next level.<\/span><\/p>\n<h4><b>Step 2: Butter Up!<\/b><\/h4>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Once the oil is hot and shimmering, add the fish fillets. Cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until they are golden brown and cooked through. Remove the fish from the skillet and set them aside on a warm plate.<\/span><\/p>\n<h4><b>Step 3: Garlic Galore<\/b><\/h4>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In the same skillet, reduce the heat to medium and add the butter. As the butter begins to melt, toss in the minced garlic. Stir continuously to prevent the garlic from burning. We want it to turn a beautiful, fragrant golden brown \u2013 not bitter and burnt!<\/span><\/p>\n<h4><b>Step 4: Zesty Lemon Love<\/b><\/h4>\n<h3><b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Once the garlic is perfectly browned, add the lemon juice and zest to the skillet. The kitchen should now smell like a citrusy paradise! Stir well to combine. This is where the magic happens, transforming plain old garlic into a luscious, tangy sauce for our <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">garlic lemon butter fish\u00a0<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><br \/>\n<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><b>Step 5: Fish Reunion<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Return the fish fillets to the skillet, spooning the garlic lemon butter sauce over them. Let the fish simmer in the sauce for another 2-3 minutes, absorbing all that garlicky, buttery goodness. This step is crucial for a perfect <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">fish in garlic butter<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> finish.<\/span><\/p>\n<h4><b>Step 6: Garnish and Serve<\/b><\/h4>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Transfer the fish to serving plates, drizzling any remaining sauce from the skillet over the top. Garnish with freshly chopped parsley for a burst of colour and freshness. If you\u2019re feeling extra fancy, you can also add a few lemon slices on the side. Voil\u00e0! Your <\/span><b>garlic lemon butter fish<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> is ready to impress.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>Serving Suggestions for <em>Butter Garlic Fish<\/em>:<\/b><\/h3>\n<div id=\"attachment_2895\" style=\"width: 310px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Screenshot-2024-07-03-120828.png\"><img decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-2895\" data-attachment-id=\"2895\" data-permalink=\"\/blog\/butter-garlic-fish\/screenshot-2024-07-03-120828\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i1.wp.com\/www.freshtohome.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Screenshot-2024-07-03-120828.png?fit=749%2C493&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"749,493\" data-comments-opened=\"0\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"A comforting and flavorful dish of flaky white fish bathed in a buttery garlic sauce, served alongside a slice of crusty bread for soaking up all the goodness.\" data-image-description=\"&lt;p&gt;Imagine tender, flaky fish cooked to perfection in a rich and savory butter garlic sauce.
