Ingredients

  1. 600g flathead portions
  2. 250g cherry tomatoes, halved
  3. 2 teaspoons olive oil
  4. 2 garlic cloves, finely chopped
  5. 1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
  6. Salt and pepper, to taste
  7. ¼ cup fresh basil leaves, torn
  8. Lemon wedges, to serve
  9. Optional: crusty bread or steamed vegetables on the side

Method

  1. Heat 2 teaspoons of oil in a pan over medium heat. Cook garlic, stirring, for 1-2 minutes until softened. Add tomatoes and balsamic, season, then cover and cook over low heat for 3-4 minutes until tomatoes
    soften but hold their shape. Remove the pan from heat, then stir in
    basil.
  2. Meanwhile, season the fish. Heat the remaining 1 tablespoon of oil in a frypan over medium-high heat. Cook the fish for 2 minutes on each side or until golden and cooked through. Divide the fish among
    plates, top with sauce, and serve with rocket leaves.

Chef's Tip

Flathead has a naturally mild, sweet flavour that pairs beautifully with light Mediterranean-style sauces. Cook the fish quickly over medium-high heat so the outside turns lightly golden while the center stays tender and flaky. Fresh cherry tomatoes, basil, and balsamic add brightness and acidity that lift the seafood without overpowering its delicate character.
