Ingredients
- 1/4 cup unsalted butter (1/2 stick)
- 1 tbsp extra-virgin olive oil
- 1 cup mixed olives, such as kalamata, castelvetrano, moroccan or picholine, pitted and sliced
- 2 garlic cloves, minced or finely grated
- 1/2 tsp fennel or coriander seeds, coarsely crushed (use the flat side of your knife or a mortar and pestle)
- 4 pieces flaky white fish fillet, such as cod (about 6 ounces each, 1 inch thick), patted dry
- kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
- 2 lime wedges, plus more for serving
- 1/4 cup chopped cilantro or parsley, leaves and tender stems
- 1/4 cup chopped dill, leaves and tender stems
Directions
Tasting notes: Fennel brings out the cigar box flavor in the Transverse but is then balanced by the black cherry flavors in the wine.
Serena's tips: A mix of olives adds more depth of flavor. Make sure the fish is 1 inch thick because if it is too thin, it does not have the right texture.
