In Epi's3-Ingredient Recipesseries, we show you how to make great food with just three ingredients (plus staples like oil, salt, and pepper).

Green juice provides a fresh sauce for this light and healthy fish dish.

Ingredients

Serves 4

3 tablespoons olive oil, divided, plus more
2 bunches scallions
Kosher salt
4 (6-ounce) skin-on red snapper or any mild white fish fillets
3/4 cup cold-pressed, vegetable-only green juice
  1. Step 1

    Heat 1 Tbsp. oil in a medium skillet over medium-high. Add scallions, season with salt, and cook, turning occasionally, until scallions are charred in spots and slightly softened, about 1 minute. Transfer to a plate. Wipe out skillet.

    Step 2

    Heat 2 Tbsp. oil in same skillet over medium-high. Season fish with salt and cook, skin side down, until very crisp, about 4 minutes. Flip fish, add green juice and scallions, and cook until fish is just cooked through, about 2 minutes more. Taste and season with salt, if needed.

    Step 3

    Divide fish and scallions among bowls; top with green sauce. Drizzle with oil and serve.

  • Few ingredients, quick and easy prep makes this a winner for our family of 4 trying to include more fin fish in our diet. Because the recipe calls for red snapper (fab taste, but expensive) and it’s not too exotic to the picky palate of my teenager who interprets unknown ingredients as being ‘spicy’. Overtime, I may add more ingredients to my aging palate, but it’s pretty darn good just as it is.
