Ingredients
- 4 pieces white fish fillets (such as cod, halibut, or tilapia)
- 200 grams fresh shiitake mushrooms
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
- 2 pieces garlic cloves, minced
- 1 piece shallot, finely diced
- 120 milliliters dry white wine
- 120 milliliters low-sodium chicken or vegetable stock
- 1 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves
- 1 piece lemon, juiced
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped (optional, for garnish)
Directions
Step 1
Pat the fish fillets dry with paper towels and season both sides with salt and black pepper. Set aside.
Step 2
Clean the shiitake mushrooms, remove the stems, and slice the caps into thin strips.
Step 3
Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the fish fillets and cook for 3-4 minutes on each side until golden brown and cooked through. Remove the fish from the skillet and set aside on a plate, covering loosely with foil to keep warm.
Step 4
In the same skillet, add the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil and the unsalted butter. Once melted, add the minced garlic and diced shallot, and sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant and slightly softened.
Step 5
Add the sliced shiitake mushrooms to the skillet and cook for 5-6 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they release their moisture and start to turn golden.
Step 6
Deglaze the pan by pouring in the dry white wine. Let it simmer for 2-3 minutes until reduced by half.
Step 7
Add the chicken or vegetable stock, fresh thyme leaves, and lemon juice. Stir well and let the sauce simmer for another 3-4 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
Step 8
Return the cooked fish fillets to the skillet, nestled in the mushroom sauce. Spoon some of the sauce over the fish and let it warm through for 1-2 minutes.
Step 9
Garnish with chopped fresh parsley, if desired, and serve immediately with your choice of sides, such as rice, mashed potatoes, or steamed vegetables.
